Re: “Read your links, idgit..”
Congrats, zz. In all these years, this is probably the first time you've ever been right.
I posted two links, but I read five or six articles. The numbers I posted are correct for the respective years - 2017 and 2012, but the statement I made about China is incorrect. I assume that that's what you called BS on. I don't know if I found that information in one of the other articles or if I was just flat-out wrong.
My main point wasn't about China, but about the fact that the fact that the U.S. DOES import a significant amount of the steel it uses each year.
I'm not sure why I'm explaining, though. You aren't going to understand it anyway.
