Yeah, but when China puts tariffs on soybeans and that cuts exports from America, that retaliation then feeds back into companies that manufacture farm equipment and repair shops that service farm equipment, and jobs get lost in those places. I’m concerned about lost farm income in North Dakota, for example, where we have a very winnable senate election in November.
Moron, guess what? China is already caving on opening their markets. You mirror the free trader sell-outs who say we should bend over for China. One would think a FReeper would base their opinions on current news instead of just spouting the usual GOPe sellout nonsense.
The tariff China imposes will mean an increase in the food supply in the USA. The lower cost to US consumer for agricultural products like pork for example, will mean more money for them to spend in other sectors of the economy. You see, it works BOTH WAYS. ECON 101 You fail.
