B. is not given first priority.

Krueger, now deputy managing director of the International Monetary Fund, said in a report on Big Steel: "The American Big Steel industry has been the champion lobbyist and seeker of protectio
A. the sacrifice from U. S. consumers.
B. the government's financial support.
C. the reduction of steel product prices.
D. the compromise from the labor force.
