Steel Shortage
Steel mills idled production last year, anticipating a serious economic downturn. That didn't happen, and now they can't ramp up fast enough...

Have a look at lumber prices. Every resource has been seized and is being throttled to artificially drive up prices. The housing market is no different. Instead of letting foreclosures happen and letting those houses hit the market, the government is virtually taking ownership of those homes. Meanwhile new construction is almost non existent because of the high building costs. Welcome to the great reset.

‘Stakeholder capitalism’ means that only the businesses that ‘they’ deem necessary will be able to operate or purchase the supplies necessary for that business. Otherwise it’s price gouging and high taxation until that business eventually dies.
Still think I’m just a loony tin foil hat wearing conspiracy theorist? How much more evidence do you need?

Life is about to become so unsustainable that you’ll be begging for government handouts. You’ll get what they say you’ll get. How about some lab grown meat, if you’re lucky.

The domestic steel industry was already hurting due to Trump's tariffs, but go on about Socialism...

I'm not a fan of tariffs by the way....I'm just sayin' what I said above was true. Know quite a few people in the mining industry.
I believe it was 6 mayors from the MN iron range (heavy union heavy democratic) that endorsed trump to boot. Thats a true story. It made national news. I will have to find a link.
