It is consider that both the sinking if the USS Maine and The Lusitania were factors in US entering two different wars (the war between US and Spain and the First World War).
The USS Maine was sunk in 1898 in Cuba. The battleship was near the Cuban coast while there was a conflict between Spain and Cuban nationalists fighters. It is believed that a mine was the cause of the explosion of the USS Maine resulting in the death of hundreds of men on board. There was already support in the US for the Cuban nationalist cause and the USS Maine incident galvanized the public opinion against Spain.
The Lusitania was sunk by a German submarine in 1915 near Ireland. The Lusitania was a civilian ship (although it was also carrying military supplies to England) and its sinking had a profound impact on public opinion. It helped the US goverment obtain popular support to declare war on Germany.

Labor markets in capitalist economies are fundamentally tilted against individual workers’ ability to bargain effectively with employers. Policy does not have to be rigged for employers to give them particular clout in labor markets; instead, the very nature of these labor markets gives them clout. In the past, when economic growth was broadly shared across the population, it was because policymakers understood this basic asymmetry and used policy levers to bolster the leverage and bargaining power of workers.

While protectionists and free trade advocates erupted into a fierce debate, the stock market tumbled. The Dow Jones Industrial Average shed 420 points, or 1.68%, on Thursday, the S&P 500 lost 1.33% and the Nasdaq declined 1.27%.
It's important, then, to know how important steel and aluminum are to the U.S. economy.
After all, as much as 55% of a car's total weight comes from steel, according to the World Steel Association. Roughly 50% of steel use goes toward buildings and infrastructure. And about 16% of steel goes toward making mechanical equipment.
