Get ready for even higher food prices

We have our own laying hens, Thank God. (You guys crack me up. I genuinely lol'd reading through this)

yep tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China will start Feb 1st 2025.

i can understand(not really) about tariffs for Mexico and China. but Canada? why?

this article summarizes what the felon's tariff war will do to the economy:

basically.....
grocery prices will go up. you bitched and moaned about Biden's economy. well things will only get worse under the felon's reign.

price on gas will go up as Mexico and Canada supply the US with 70% of crude oil to US refineries.

Mexico supplies 60% of produce to the US as well as 50% of all fruit.

cars will now be more expensive. i would suggest buying a car now, rather than later when new cars get built will be way more expensive.

my guess is that you guys will not care because you voted for the felon and y'all are all very tribal....and will allow the felon to do what he will. he could shoot someone on 5th ave and you would still fall off a cliff for him.
 
The US has plenty of oil, and everything else that is imported.
Prices will go down because of this.
That's not how it works. Different weights/types and refining processes, where and how it's done, is why we import from Canada. Prices will be affected unless it's excluded from the tariffs.

Canadian oil imports

edit to add - that's just for oil. You might want to look at food, cars, wood and so much more.

Bird flu. You probably haven't heard about it though. But OK, right you are — Biden, for unknown reasons, had a personal vendetta against chickens so personally ordered them killed. Is that what you're suggesting?

I'm not going to bother posting actual information with links and explaining the long history of bird flu and the reasoning behind why birds get culled. Public safety, pathogens, disease, etc. is all just crazy talk. It's a waste of time because Biden is your only answer, damn the facts.
 
Canada played him. What they agreed to had already been worked out with Biden in December.

All that happened was the stock markets dropped and a crap ton of short trades happened because of the planned manipulation.

I don't even want to ask how you feel about co-President Musk's takeover of the federal systems and running it all with barely out of high schoolers. He's a private citizen and now has access to all your federal information with no clearance or security. He's locked the government out of the government. But go ahead, cheer it all on. I honestly hope we make it out of this but think not. So thanks.
It boggles the mind that you just don't see anything wrong with what's going on.

Can't quite figure out how you figure that Trudeau worked out anything with old joe, in December, when he flew down, twice, to meet with Trump in Mar-a-Lago to discuss the proposed tariffs.
Once in November and again in December.
 
Source? Because no, not really. I checked cocoa and sugar and whatever you posted doesn't seem to match Canada's tariff schedule. But whatever. Facts clearly don't matter, wtf was I thinking?
Actually, don't bother trying to justify anything. You're right, you voted for this and you'll get exactly what you voted for — too bad you based everything you (don't) know on lies and mis-truth. So again, thanks for the destruction of our democracy. What a shit show.
