This is amazing. Let's hope for the employees that the CEO is right!

"Longhi said, “I have not felt an environment of positive optimism where forces are converging to provide for a better environment in quite a while. And this is pretty widespread. Customer suppliers, you know, throughout the communities.”

He added, “I’m more than happy to bring back the employees that we were forced to lay off during the depression … It could be close to 10,000."

US Steel CEO: Could Rehire 10,000, Trump Victory Bringing 'Environment of Positive Optimism' - Breitbart

Nope those jobs won't be coming back to the United States. Not unless you can get a Republican congress to agree to subsidize them. No investors are going to invest in Steel plants here so they can LOSE money. Steel is being made in China. They can produce it much cheaper than here in the United States, and developers/builders will ALWAYS go for the least expensive building products.

Furthermore, this story is coming out of Breitbart, in which Steve Bannon is now in the Trump administration.

First off, Breitbart is only quoting the CEO's interview with CNBC.

Secondly, the gentleman being quoted is a CEO of US Steel who is a professional in the industry as compared to differing opinions on a message board.
