Scrap metal is a great way to get a few extra bucks whenever you need it. Whenever I’m doing jobs, I always set aside the scrap metal and let it accumulate. Sometimes I even pick things up that I know I can easily get some metal out of and keep it out of a landfill. I don’t advocate for taking copper from abandoned houses or factories or anything like that, but I feel like statues of Confederate generals should be at least “on the table” if people are starving.
I did a scrap run today, and offer a local perspective about the area that may be different than what people perceive.
The Life of Scrap Metal:
Some Jagoff gathers up a load of scrap, they get $62. The scrap gets smashed up into scraprocks, and then rolls down past the illegal fracking plant to the US Steel ET Works. This unprofitable business that relies on tons of tax dollars to stay afloat uses megatons of coal to generate massive amounts of electricity to cook those scraprocks into liquid metal. In the process, all of the contaminants are stripped or burned off, and all of us locals huff that poisonous scraprock smoke. Some people get so high on it that they never leave the area of the scrap kitchen and live in destitute for generations, proud to serve the Cycle that kills them. There once was a rich man with a good heart who came to the area, and him and his wife tried to make a difference. When he started to rise in prominence and power, he had a stroke and became a laughingstock in politics.
