Things going up in price at the grocery store

Moronic. Suddenly the right loves high prices and taxes on American consumers because their ORANGE God says so. It’s a fucking cult.

Olive oil
Avocados
Ground Beef (US Beef used for steak)
Almost 4 of 5 seafood items are imported
Most cheeses that aren’t American or Cheddar
Tons of fruits and vegetables particularly in the off season
Pineapples, Strawberries (we eat more of both than we produce)
As mentioned in the OP spirits and wines
….The list is endless…..

All Trump is doing is raising prices, limiting choices, and taxing working Americans.

Fruits and vegetables Mexico is a huge provider.
As far as taxing working Americans is concerned if he manages to eliminate the payroll tax I'm sure people will still find a reason to bitch. We should have gone over to a consumption tax a long time ago.

Consumption taxes are regressive. They move the tax burden down to the people who can ill afford them.
 
Yep, you take the conversation for us talking about politics, to you talking about me, and making it emotional....
Nope - you are not this dumb.
So the only explanation for your short sided post is you blind yourself with Trump hatred to such an extent, you are good with saying something so simple minded and short sided.

And, I already know, when you read this, your brain will do the same thing.
 
no one is going to work in a factory for $6.00 an hour.

Kamala proposed price fixing and you CULTISTS went Bat Shit Crazy. Let me remind you

... and no one is going to pay $30 per hour for a low skilled service job.
 
Where did you get that silly idea? China imports pork from the US.
The American poultry industry sends a lot out to China for processing before they get it back.
Also china recently purchased the largest pork producer in North America and now owns it. As far as I'm concerned that sale should have been stopped by the commerce department.

I don't know about pork being shipped but large shipments of chicken do come in from China after they've been processed.

stop getting your news from Facebook

No chickens are going to China for processing....

Chinese facilities have been eligible to process US chicken for nearly a decade​


China has been able to process chicken from the United States since 2013, when four chicken processors were approved to export cooked poultry products from birds raised in the U.S., Canada and Chile. Politico and The New York Times reported about concerns over Chinese chicken exports reaching the American market, with the latter reporting that the country “does not have the best track record for food safety.”

In 2017, the rules were changed, and the first known shipment of cooked chicken from poultry raised in China arrived in the U.S., according to the Washington Post. It came after a trade deal, supported by then-President Donald Trump, to send more U.S. beef to China while receiving more Chinese poultry in the U.S., the Post reported.

Trump allowed Chinese grown poultry into the USA. Choke on them feathers
MAGA MAGA :doubt:

The largest pork producer in the United States, Smithfield Foods, has been owned by China's WH Group since 2013, following a $4.7 billion deal aimed at tapping into US meat supplies for export to China. justoffal

If Jesus T says it's ok they fall right in line.
 

Aside from a lot of BS the media still perpitrates and spews out, the ONLY things going up in price are items manufactured OUTSIDE of this country. If you buy a lot of wine from Italy or France, yeah.....you're going to pay more. If you buy wine produced INSIDE the USA, no tarriffs involved.

Sure, theres going to be corrupt companies taking advantage of this and jacking up their already price gouging prices even more..........but its YOU, THE CONSUMER that can stop that!!! Just LEAVE IT ON THE SHELF! Stop dumping your wallets into these corrupt companies and start leaving their products on the shelves for other brands that aren't price gouging their customers.

Past consumer projects such as changing brand companies that don't price gouge, or just not buying the product any more, has shown that just after only 3 months, that these companies being "left on the shelf" get the picture and drop prices.

If you don't like the price tag, then DON'T BUY IT!!! That simple.

Trump fighting with China might affect a lot of companies, but are these companies that we REALLY need the Chinese junk they sell?
No. Theres plenty of other options.

Could it be a rough ride for us? Sure it could..........just like the last 4 years of HARD CORE PRICE GOUGING has been a detrement to all of us........but this time, we have a president that is working his business magic to make things BETTER for us, not WORSE!!!
"will be?" Let's talk about it if it happens. Currently prices are dropping.

Buy stuff from inside, you say?

Mortgage interest rates are going up. Thanks to Trump.

Interest rates on everything are going up. Thanks to Trump.

We have a president who can't even read a balance sheet much less run the world's largest economy. He is running this ship onto the rocks.

He can't even make his social media company viable, and you think he can make things better for us?

BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

Oh, man. That's priceless.

What sort of speciality cheese do you think the vast majority of American are importing for their every day consumption?
 
The US is capitalism. Capitalism is supply and demand. If you take out some of the supplies then demand will be strained and prices will rise, US businesses will make more money out of the people. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer, AGAIN.
Been that way for decades, neither Republicans or Democrats have the answers, the two largest transfers of wealth occurred under Obama and Biden. If you vote for either party you are being suckered.
 
Yes, and that means prices are NOT coming down. The cost to manufacture/produce in the USA is high.

Trump told you he was going to lower prices, NO he is not. He lied to you.
Yes both party’s lie to us, I can tell when I see their lips move. We need to find a new party that isn’t owned by the rich.
