Steel remains a technology with huge potential for future development. Some keywords: eutectic solution, bulk metallic glass, and boron steel.
It seems crazy to me that any first world nation would let it's steel production fall into foreign hands. As a machinist for 5 years in my country I would have been excempt from military service even in total war.
If US steel is unable to innovate and foreign ownership is somehow not a problem, this development is probably a good thing. The Zaibatsu system is a good fit for what steel is.
