Minnesota jobs not in the mining industry or related to it are will help the 8th district turnout? Mining in some other countries such as Australia (for iron in particular) isn't going to help the jobs in Minnesota? Australia has got iron lying on the ground basically waiting to be picked up (I'm hyping this up probably, the iron lying on the ground to be picked up) so the iron is going to be cheaper anyways. Knowing the rich boys, they'll do what China does, is import the iron ore (not processed overseas), and process it into steel and the like in China instead. This is how one gets around tRUMP's tariffs, so whatever tRUMP does anyway, there is gonna be a way around it (the tariffs).

Same w/ alum. too, probably (I don't know about alum. (vs. what little I know about iron ore)...
