well the tariff on mexico is different than china, but they both have the same conclusion, stop fking americans. So mexico has the opportunity to step up and do what is actually right and enforce their own immigration laws. that would solve the caravan thing. now, how to make them enforce them. I have no problem with a 5% tariff on product coming in. that will only hurt the average joe by 5% of a total price on a product, not their household income. fk I hate when people draw out the drama in lies.name a wayI am against the tariffs and believe it only hurt the consumer in the end.
Seeing we are hooked to the hip with Mexico from agriculture to auto industry to oil it mean this is going to slap the American consumer harder than tariffs against China.
When Trump threatened to shut the border down which would have halted trade with Mexico and us it seem many of his voters did not realize how much Mexico supplied this country besides the Avocados.
What will go up is cost of food from Tomatoes to Avocados and the cost of Beer will also rise.
Now before Trump voters scream buy American and plant a Victory Garden let be clear you can not plant during the winter as of now this is growing season but if the tariffs flow into winter then you will see the hurt on the American consumer.
Also remember your beer companies are now owned by foreign companies in Europe. Sure you have local companies but the bigger ones like Budweiser are no longer American owned, and the cost will hit you there.
In the end the Tariff idea is wrong and there are other ways to hurt Mexico and Central America while not punishing the American consumer...
Now explain why you support Tariffs that will hurt the American consumer?
Why do you believe Trump is correct and had Obama done this would have supported it or would have bashed him like I would?
fk dude, the left in illinois just doubled the gas tax here in illinois 19 cents a gallon to 38 cents a gallon. what's the difference, it's still a tax? drop all the taxes because everyone gets hurt then. how's that. Had obammy done it and stopped illegals, I would have said genius.
