being in the steel working industry all my life ,i`ve watched plant by plant go over the border to Mexico or overseas. i watched American made tools, fasterns,machine tools,steel mills,forge and casting plants shut down and sold for pennies on the dollars. Taiwan and South Korea were the first to buy our plants now it`s India and China. in fact China bought the kaiser steelworks inn southern California and took it apart beam by beam and shipped it to china...
the worst part of this is during the 80`s the "reagen democrats" let this happen. reagen`s thugs gave the workers the knifes to cut their own throats.....
