FYI:
You have to give Bush credit: "PITTSBURGH (Reuters) - President Bush picked up $850,000 in campaign contributions in the heart of America's steel industry on Tuesday even as he prepared to lift tariffs that have been helping the steelmakers. Supporters of the tariffs lodged a last-ditch effort to keep the protections in place. Bush heard arguments from Pennsylvania Republican Sen. Arlen Specter and U.S. Steel Corp. Chairman Tom Usher, a sponsor of the campaign fund-raiser which the Bush re-election campaign said had been planned long before the steel decision became imminent. Scores of steelworkers demonstrated near the Pittsburgh site of Bush's event." In admiration, Marv |

You have to give Bush credit: Heck, that's *nothing*. You should see what rep Tom DeLay tried to push through - a 'get out of jail free, no lawsuits' rider to the recent energy bill. It would have immunized companies like Lyondell Chemical from state lawsuits involving contaminated drinking water wells. Of course this involves MTBE, the oxygenate that reduced pollution by 10 percent and decreases gas mileage by 12 percent. No suprise, Lyondell was the biggest single contributor to DeLay's 2004 campaign. The best politicans money can buy - purchased by the Oxygenated Fuels Association, the folks who lobbied long and hard to get MTBE added into gas in the first place. And oddly enough, one of the guys who stood up to them and filubustered the rider to a halt was that favorite evil-doer, Chuck Shumer. Every cloud has an MTBE-free lining.

Why would you give someone credit for getting his butt in a crack and
trying to squirm out? Bush wanted votes from the steel states so he made all the rest of us pay 30% more for our raw material. Now his chickens are coming home to roost. You want to give him credit for that? AND NOW he walks away with another million in big steel bribes for his next campaign. He's got one heavy set of gonads. The problem is that we are the jock strap. I give him credit for being good at pandering for votes and having us pay for them. You might have called Clinton "Slick Willie" but the Dubwa is down right slimy.

Hehehe
What I find interesting is that I would have made the same list concerning what the "right" does to press their agenda. In the Reagan days it was "I don't recall" and "disinformation" for the public good. It'll be interesting to see how Bush II handles this stuff...so far they seem to scramble looking for whisps of truth so they can say "see, we were right". I guess what it really means is that both sides bend the truth to get what they want and that we are all so stuck in our own personal agendas that we tend to neglect the notion that the other guy's opinion may also have some validity, no matter how nutty it seems Koz Gunner wrote: On 03 Dec 2003 12:34:50 GMT, (Bray Haven) wrote: Let me know when he starts getting $10,000 contributions from impoverished Buddhist nuns, ok?

jokingly asked the owner if the price would be coming down with the lifting of the tarrif. His opinion was they may dip slightly but overall would increase quite a bit over the next year. Seems the Chinese are on a building binge and are scarfing up all the steel they can get their hands on. Scrap prices have already increased considerably.

Economists around the world are saying that steel prices are in for an increase, partly because of the Chinese consumption and partly because manufacturing is ticking-up in general.

Why that happens to be can take a while to answer. There are several big factors, some of which are within their control and some of which aren't. Ed Huntress |

I think that would drive US manufacturers cost higher making the US even less competitive. http://uk.biz.yahoo.com/031104/80/ed0un.html MONACO, Nov 4 (Reuters) - Nickel prices could reach more than $15,000 a tonne ($6 a lb) in 2004-5 because of an expected boom in Chinese demand, an extremely limited supply response and chronically low global stock levels, an industry analyst said on Tuesday. In a paper to delegates attending a Metal Bulletin (LSE: MTLB.L - news) ferro-alloys conference, Jim Lennon from Macquarie Bank said prices could push up to levels last seen 15 years ago. "Prices will have to rise sharply -- and may stay high for a long time," he said. China would play the dominant role in nickel prices because of the strong pace of its demand, particularly in stainless steel production, he said. In global terms, Chinese consumption accounts for more than 21 percent of a total 1.242 million tonnes. Stainless steel production accounts for two-thirds of nickel consumption. http://www.cdrecycler.com/news/news.asp?ID=1382 Ferrous Price Spike Predicted Vicki Roche, a scrap buyer for steelmaker Gerdau AmeriSteel Corp., Tampa, Fla., said she has seen scrap prices averaging about $3 per ton higher thus far in September. She noted that offshore demand for ferrous scrap is likely to continue and that pig iron out of Brazil is sold out through January of 2004, causing further demand strain on the market. According to Roche, though, some of the other “perfect storm” factors that drove scrap prices up are alleviating. She noted that the labor situation that restricted DRI production in Venezuela has eased and that the Russian 30-euros tax on exported scrap could be lifted sometime soon. Industry analyst Marcus, though, believes there are still overall supply constraints that, coupled with a booming Chinese steel industry, will make for a lack of steel furnace feedstock relative to global demand. Marcus said that even though much of the new Chinese capacity consists of blast furnaces, a shortage of iron ore capacity will cause buyers at these mills to seek more scrap from an obsolete scrap reservoir that is already straining to feed the world’s electric arc furnace (EAF) mills. That shortage is already showing this year, by Marcus’ calculations, with a theoretical shortfall of 36 million metric tons of obsolete scrap in the market in his “most likely” scenario, followed by shortages of 40 million metric tons next year, 45 million metric tons in 2005 and 50 million tons by 2010. OTOH, Dubya could always seize Chinese assets. Chow mein noodles could be as dangerous as pretzels. Best regards, Spehro Pefhany -- "it's the network..."

Unlike the Japanese who lost much of their forign exchange surplus in US real estate investments like Pebble Beach, the chinese are taking their dollars and spending it on infrastructure and buildings. From what my steel dealer says the Chinese are driving scrap up prices indirectly because they are buying a lot of finished structural steel and the exporting producers are scrambling for scrap. Just wait until they start turning that steel into cars. Then we will be competing against them for gasoline. -- Glenn Ashmore I'm building a 45' cutter in strip/composite.

An interesting thought, but the US has a big advantage in the secondary steel (scrap remelted in mini-mills) business. The Chinese are bigger in primary steel -- steel made from ore. Ed Huntress |

There are several big factors, some of which are within their control and some of which aren't. It's happened in the rest of the world, why not in the US as well? Mark Rand RTFM Because we didn't start out with state-owned steel companies with state-supported pensions and health care, and the kind of consolidation the European and Japanese steel companies have indulged in would have violated the Sherman Anti-Trust Act until recent years, and landed some steel execs in deep doo-doo.

Then everyone must conform to the lie "No man shall be debarred the use of arms. The laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm those only who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants. They ought to be designated as laws not preventative but fearful of crimes, produced by the tumultuous impression of a few isolated facts, and not by thoughtful consideration of the inconveniences and advantages of a universal decree." - Thomas Jefferson |

George and Steel Tarifs
Are you guys aware that the steel fabricating industry lobbied long and
harde to have the tarriffs removed. It appears that there is not enough steel produced in the US to allow processors a continuous flow at reasonable prices. I don't know I am only regurgitating reports from steel fabricators press releases as they congratulte themselves for their own victory. The trade groups went so far as to put a fab line on the capitol steps to demontrate their point. Regards, Charles "Abrasha" wrote in message ...

The fab industry doesn't give a damn what happens to the US steel industry, as long as they can get steel from somewhere. The US steel industry doesn't give a damn what happens to the fab industry, as long as there's somebody, like the car manufacturers, who need to buy steel. All that either of them care about is their own wallets. Ed Huntress |
