Of course, the mills were still making a profit, but it's clear they can't continue to do so in the face of Chinese steel and EPA regulatory changes. GM was already bleeding money, not making money, so you can see what the real issue is. The Party considers companies that make a profit to be worthless nests of evil capitalists even when they employ good democrats who have always supported the democrat fascist agenda.
I guess if the Steelworkers didn't learn all they needed to know about reality and the democrat coalition when Carter told them to go to Hell they were destined to never learn.
And what about the Mineworkers who have been so faithfully democrat, how do they feel when King Barry brags about having signed the death warrant for the mining industry?
Democrats preached the “post industrial society” slop for decades but labor unions continued to shower the democrat fascist party with votes and money without getting a thing in return. For some reason, the meaning of "post industrial" never seemed to sink in among the rank and file.
It's hard to believe that the people dependent on this being an advanced industrialized nation funded and voted for the very people who promised to destroy their jobs and turn this country into a deindustrialized third world chithole., but as they say, truth is stranger than fiction.
Well said.
