From the Paper:

"Since the year 2000 the steel industry in the United States has been in a recovery mode due to several factors present or lacking in the manufacturing facilities in the U.S. Several of these factors dealt with overpopulation in the workforce, older inefficient equipment, costly expensive workforce as well as Union representation. All these factors placed together acted as a deadly combination for many companies and to make matters worse, towards the end of 2000 the U.S. began to be the recipient of massive quantities of cheap under-priced steel. Due to the level of imports being pushed into the U.S. market after only a few months the U.S. steel industry was on the verge of total collapse. "
