Steel Plant in Radical Transformation

[DeserTBoB93535]

Typical Republican..."We're gonna shut down these union jobs and have a bunch of burger flippers on this site!" Idiots like Ray-Gun and Bush did this.

You can't build an economy on gambling...oh wait...that's whats happening on Wall St.! See...told you so.

Did you see that blowing engine room??? Cooper-Bessemer, probably built in the '30s or '40s. That millwas obsolete after WWII! Corporate greed at work, my friends...squeeze every last nickel out of an obsolete plant, then can all the career workers and abscond with the money. It's the American way!

so sad.....retail? casino? just what we need....another mall! its great working for less then $10/hr with no benefits. too bad america made it so damn difficult to run any heavy industry. you want these jobs back? try shouting down the enviro whackos and the unions with their outstretched hands saying "more more more" and there might be a chance.

[manga12]

still the jobs in tourism dont pay as well as the mill jobs that used to be there, and the jobs that drive real wealth are the goods producing industries that is what sustains the middle class, and that is truth, still though all and any jobs today are welcome in this most desperate time in the world due to the greed and tampering of the corporations in finance and realestate we have lost much. let us just how the rebalanceing that is comming from the tea partys will help get our contry back

@rog197236 Thankfully the steel industry has boosted a bit over the past few years.
