Back to the 80s? Japanese corporate giants once again threaten American industry! 😱 (It's interesting that this time it's happening as both countries are in terminal economic decline)
Making this a text post as I want to include two links:
Nippon Steel Corporation (NSC) to Acquire U. S. Steel, Moving Forward Together as the ‘Best Steelmaker with World-Leading Capabilities’ Article is by U.S. Steel themselves
The U.S. Steel name will remain, its HQ in Pittsburgh will remain, all collective bargaining agreements will remain.
USW Slams Nippon Plan to Acquire USS Response by United Steelworkers
They want U.S. Steel to remain a domestic company. USS and NSC did not reach out to the union, violating a partnership agreement, so NSC will probably fail to adhere to preexisting union contracts.
Well NSC wants to increase its steel production, and paid more than US Steel was worth, so it sounds like they'll actually keep it
