Made by union workers in factories that were built in the early 1900's. Around the 1980-1990 the factories went under due to foreign steel which was being made in newer, more efficient facilities. We didn't upgrade, we didn't keep pace with Japan and other countries. That is why we lost. The workers were highly paid as well, but it was a dangerous job working. The Inland steel plant still stands... like a monument to complacency...</p></blockquote><p></p>
