This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The mill is doing fine. The increased tariffs help them sell their product since they are producing US made steel.

The mill will close after the tariffs crash the economy and they have no one left to buy their steel, but for a few quarters the profits were amazing

The mill still needs iron ore and coal. The prices of both are up because of the tariffs, so the mill isn't guaranteed to benefit from the tariffs at all.

Where does the coal to fire the furnaces come from?
