Tractors and (upcoming) tariffs?

[Hay Dude]

The US Government is the largest source of weapons for Mexican cartels.

Remember Fast and Furious? 2009-2011? Where the US intentionally sold military grade weapons to illegal buyers? Those weapons went on to be used in crimes on the border.

Cartels use military grade weapons, not US consumer grade weapons. Very few sources of military hardware

Wasn’t it Border Patrolman Brian Terry who was murdered with one of those fast & furious weapons.

Been done to death in the "You may love/hate this idea" thread and no one's mind was changed

For sure but im sure the poster and several others didnt know this. Critical thinking is hard b/c it requires you to ask questions of both sides. If you are a loyalist and I gather most here are. Then you are right

So why do webmasters disallow free speech? It's pretty easy to say something in disagreement just so it's said in a polite manor and without hate toward others or using fowl language. The word tariff in itself is political, it comes via political decisions made by politicians.

The tariff's are suppose to help the american businesses
to bring the cheap products to be comparable to U.S.
made products??

Some of the congress rep's want to send in the military
to wipe out the kartell

The tariffs may add some fixed costs to tractors, but that cost will most likely be far less than the decrease resulting from the restoration of American energy independence.

We should be seeing the price of oil drop back below $ 40 per barrel by June, 2025 after the pipelines thru Canada are reopened and drilling is resumed on Federal lands. That will more than cut fuel costs in half, saving much on transportation.

Trump is doing the crash prevention method to boost the economy. If he does away with income taxes, he will be a hero to all. Hope they do away with a lot of agencies that are nothing but regulatory agencies, EVERYTHING does not need to be regulated.

Just in my short tenure all kinds of new fees and inspections instituted...

We now pay a fee based on how many cubic feet of Oxygen the Hospital keeps on site.

Also, pay a fee per emergency generator on site.

Pay a fee to have implant tissue in the cryo freezer.

Pay a fee to have a 50psi air compressor for the HVAC system.

Pay a storm water fee based on size of the parking lot.

I could go on and on...

Inflation rate is an overall average of many things, not just groceries. Some things are obviously selling for a lot more than the average rate, while other things haven’t increased as much.

Please tell me what has not risen as much. Not anything I buy!!!
