RE: Globalist Having A Meltdown Over Steel
The U.S. Military requires 3% of US production during times of relative peace. What percentage did they require during WWII?
I'll help a little. The U.S. Currently produces about 8 million tons of steel a month. During WWII the military consumed 788 million tons of steel over a six year period. In other words, we currently produce 8 and during WWII we used about 11, or about 137% of current production.
Due to,aging factories it's not like we can just jump production to 15 million tons a month. U.S. Steel is currently spending a bunch on modernization, but it's a three year project and they have to be profitable to make it happen.
