So I will ask the question again. If terrify are so bad and awful how come everything was so much cheaper

quote:

Trump's strategy centered on shielding U.S. steel mills from foreign competition with a 25 percent tariff imposed in March 2018. He also promised to boost steel demand through major investments in roads, bridges and other infrastructure.

But higher steel prices resulting from the tariffs dented demand from the Michigan-based U.S. auto industry and other steel consumers. And the Trump administration has never followed through on an infrastructure plan.


It wasnt. Certain prices did increase.

It also hurt American producers as demand lowered because of higher prices.
