I’d like to know that too. You responded to yourself, after all.

fricking welfare queens. Between subsidizing their losses and creating artificial market for ethanol, they should quit bitching about tariffs

The U.S., on balance, has a stronger economy than China, but with an unnecessary trade war, we’re taking an unnecessary risk. It’s nuts…

I understand what you say, but I guess my bigger picture viewpoint is, even if the situation presented itself someday where it was deemed a “necessary risk” (such as Taiwan), why have we allowed ourselves to reach a point where there’s any level of financial “risk” to consider when it comes to dealing with a gigantic communist country?

I can’t imagine us ever having put ourselves in such a situation with the old Soviet Union, at any time.

But because the CCP has smartly put a seemingly friendly “capitalist/business” mask on its face, we’ve been lulled into approaching them differently.

RINOs did this. RINOs and slick Willy.

in 6 months, the farmers will be rejoicing, book it.

Smithfield is the largest pork producer in the world. The Chinese bought them in 2013, making them one of the largest overseas owners of US farmland.

I have a healthy respect for farmers/ranchers but they can whine with teachers and nurses all day, any day

Soybean lobby has been lobbying the govt to increase the amount of soy oil used in biodiesel production in order to increase demand for soybeans. Two new crush mills are coming online in the Midwest

I hope it happens. Because increased crush to get soy oil means it creates a byproduct of soybean meal. Soybean meal is used to make cattle, poultry, and catfish feed. There is already a glut of meal on the market and this will make it worse, The result? Very cheap soybean meal meaning cheap feed meaning deltaland rakes in the money when fish prices are about to go up due to a shortage of catfish in a few months due to a bad hatch industry wide last spring. The crush mills are begging the feed mills to take meal, even if they have to hold it on site on rail car due to storage bins being full. But we aren’t taking any more than necessary to fill feed orders. Drive that price into the ground
