Looking forward to really cheap bacon and some nice sweet tender pork roasts and bargain prices no less! Hurrah for tariffs. More please!

You may look forward to them. Thanks to the repeal of country of origin labeling, US consumers have no idea where their beef and pork muscle are coming from, at least if they buy from a grocer.

Loss of export markets may well lead to a short term glut on the U.S. market and domestic prices may fall. But if the pork producers can't make money off their pigs then they'll stop raising them. You will see farmers cut back on supply rather quickly, and your bacon and pork prices will probably remain steady if not go up on the long term.

Uh, no.

Read the article. The U.S. government will prop up the pork prices to keep you paying top dollar for those port roads and bacon before they ever let you enjoy those "bargain prices."

Oh -- and they'll do it using YOUR tax money. So you'll be subsidizing your friendly neighborhood pork farmer twice.
