Washington, DC - - (March 9, 2018) - - It appears that some globalists are crying "foul" after seeing the imposition of U.S. tariffs on imports of raw steel materials and raw aluminum materials. Some seem to act as if these tariffs just materialized out of thin air. That is not the case.
One would assume that most globalists are familiar with (or actually read) the Wall Street Journal. Those that actually read the publication probably noticed an Op-Ed published August 1, 2017. In the Op-Ed, current U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross reportedly said the following:
The Trump administration last week celebrated the workers and businesses that make this country great. The purpose of “Made in America Week” was to recognize that, when given a fair chance to compete, Americans can make and sell some of the best, most innovative products in the world.

Secretary Ross went on the outline ways that unbalanced free trade has harmed the United States of America. The entire article may be accessed at: Press Here
