Got an email from restoration design -
To all our valued customers, President Trump has signed an executive order imposing a duty of 25% on all parts produced outside of North America. This will include all parts produced in Europe, China and Taiwan. This order does not affect Canadian parts at this time. If you anticipate needing parts, call us or look at our website to determine which parts this executive order will affect. To avoid the 25% duty rate, parts will need to cross into the USA prior to March 23rd, 2018, when the executive order will take effect. |

It seems like the real issue here is China dumping cheap, inferior, and below cost steel in North America in hopes of cornering and/or commanding the market.
I still bristle at the thought of the shitshow San Francisco Oakland Bay Bridge. I'm not being political, BOTH political parties had a hand in many BAD decisions in this case. http://www.americanmanufacturing.org/blog/...s-to-fall-apart |

Failures happen...usually because corners are cut by the politicians. It is always about money and yes......I know what I talking about. |
