Speak slowly, I'm a conservative.

Conservatives are usually better educated.

Do a Web search on "Tojo", "Pearl Harbor" and "scrap steel".

You might actually learn something that'll enable you to avoid making an @$$ out of yourself.

Your first post said...

It's a great way to undermine our national security that was unavailable to Tojo.

Then you told me...

Do a Web search on "Tojo", "Pearl Harbor" and "scrap steel".

So I found this... In July 1940, Roosevelt began his program of economic warfare by embargoing strategic goods. In September, he prohibited exports of iron and scrap steel to Japan. In June 1941, he restricted oil shipments.

So I guess that allowing Japan to sell us cheap steel will lead them to drive all our mills out of business.

Then, they will cut off the supply and bring us to our knees?

I just want to be clear on your point. Is that it?
