Hey there is always cheep chinee steel which could be dumped through neighbors like beer Canada and Mexico...but I guess to a real RACIST, some lives DON'T matter much do they?
Which puts a lot of steel workers ( a much bigger crew than HD has obviously) out of work.
But somehow, THAT'S OK.

China’s appalling mining death rate – dealing with ‘disorderly’ management
China’s appalling mining death rate
""Health and safety practices in China, like in all parts of the world, are evolving at an uneven rate.""
This month, on 25 September, an accident in Gansu province left 20 miners dead and 14 injured. The cable of a rail carriage taking workers down into the mine snapped, sending 34 miners plummeting into the pit.
Just one month ago, in August, a gas explosion at Xiaojiawan coal mine in Sichuan province killed forty-five people, injured fifty-four and left one person missing. Official Chinese news sources were quick to report that poor management was to blame, and an initial investigation has uncovered a malfunctioning ventilation system, missing gas sensors and that the mine had been exceeding its production capacity, violating safety standards.
The explosion is not an isolated incident. A total of 76 people have been killed in three Chinese coal-mining accidents since mid-August this year, according to reports by the State Administration of Work Safety. Furthermore, China’s coal pits claim the lives of thousands of miners each year, despite the existence of legislation to prevent accidents and fatalities from occurring.
