• Andrew Carnegie Steel Tycoon Industry - Bill of Rights Institute

  Early in 1901, J. P. Morgan, the country’s most powerful banker, merged Andrew Carnegie’s Carnegie Steel Corporation with nine other steel companies to form the world’s largest corporation. The United States Steel Corporation, usually known as U.S. Steel or simply Big Steel, was capitalized at $1.4 billion. To get a sense of how big a sum that was at the turn of the twentieth century, consider that the federal government that year spent only $517 million. The creation of U.S. Steel was the [...] In 1860, the United States had produced only 13,000 tons of steel. In 1880, it produced 1,467,000 tons. Twenty years later, it produced 11,227,000 tons, more than England and Germany combined. By that time, steel was the measure of a country’s industrial might, and Carnegie was primarily responsible for American strength in steel production. He left the employ of the Pennsylvania Railroad to devote himself full time to overseeing the production of iron and steel. But he was careful to maintain [...] Schwab went to see Carnegie at a cottage Carnegie maintained at St. Andrews Golf Course north of New York City, and over a game of golf, Carnegie agreed to sell U.S. Steel to Morgan for $492,000,000. When Carnegie shook hands with Morgan later, the latter said, “Congratulations on becoming the richest man in the world.” Carnegie had come a long way from his first job as a bobbin boy making $1.20 a week.

The US steel industry is competitive and capable of reducing the impact of steelmaking on the climate. [...] US steelmakers are the world leaders in making steel efficiently, using less energy and labor and fewer raw ­materials than competitors, and to the highest performance standards. The challenges for the industry are the costs of ­public policy and the exploita­tion of globalization by ­others to gain market dominance through nonmarket practices. In the US economy, goods-­producing industries comprised 17.6% of the GDP in the first quarter of 2023, and services were 70.9%. Manufacturing is only [...] The Ascent of Steel in the United States The use of steel in the US economy has grown since the late nineteenth century, as shown in figure 1. The increase was due both to wider applications of steel from 1800 to the 1950s and the increase in population during that period and continuing until today.
