They will see for themselves same way we learned Reaganomics didn't work.
No economic plan will work when regressives regulate businesses out of business. That's exactly what's been happening over the last 40 years. Then you have bureaucrats like in the EPA that gives grants to environazis to sue them, the EPA doesn't defend the law in court and settles getting a judgment from a court ordering them to do things the wanted to do all along but couldn't get congress to give them the authority. Then they pay the legal bills of the people they hired to sue them in the first place. Commiecrat policies and schemes are what don't work, with out them we'd be doing just fine.

Let's talk about trade deficits which was in Trump's transcripts with the Mexican President. Trade deficits are nothing more than paper deficits, not real "money" loss's.
Mexico is the 3rd largest purchaser of American goods in the world. We buy more of their products simply because we are a larger population and require more. We can't expect Canada or Mexico to purchase 2 washers & dryers per family and 5 American cars. Really the only place we should have a trade surplus is with China as they are a larger population, but they manipulate their currency during trade. I seriously doubt Trump will do anything with China because he owns hotels there. IOW--they have him held hostage.

So for 2016 Mexico bought
$230 BILLION dollars worth of American goods, and Canada bought
$267 BILLION. I don't think it's real smart to insult countries that buy that much from us.
Get back to me when you have something other than speculation. Also both Mexico and Canada are dealing in bad faith. Just ask the dairy farmers up north and the folks that live along the US southern border.
.
You can provide a link to that if you're going to make the claim on dairy farmers. We have dairy farmers that I can provide links too, that are very concerned they won't have the help they need to bring in the milk or their harvests right now.
Dairy farmers rely on thousands of immigrants, most of them undocumented, to milk the cows. They fear Trump administration policies will cause their labor pool to dry up.

No need to worry about what Canada is doing to dairy farmers, Trump has done enough already.
They worry they may have to pay minimum wage.
But have no fear, democrats are here to keep illegals working for pennies on the dollar and denying jobs to Americans.
No it's much more than offering a minimum wage. It's back breaking work--that Americans will not do for minimum wage.
So what are the consequence's to that? Milk, eggs, beef, chicken, fruit and vegi's go through the roof at the grocery store, and
who gets hurt the most? The poor and elderly in this country that are on a fixed incomes--is who will get hurt the most.
Alabama kicked out all undocumented workers, and it wasn't long before they were begging them to come back.

Hidden behind the Banco del Sol and the Tienda El Nino is the economic pillar of this rural town: A massive factory that processes 130,000 chickens a day. Inside, headless plucked birds move along conveyor belts while 300 workers, in repeated deft strokes, slice each passing carcass into chunks of kitchen-ready meat.
For years, most poultry workers here were Mexican immigrants, including some who were in the country illegally. But last fall, after a tough state law against illegal immigrants took effect, many vanished overnight, rattling the town’s large Hispanic community and
leaving the poultry business scrambling to find workers willing to stand for hours in a wet, chilly room, cutting up dead chickens.
“Even someone born and raised in Albertville may not have the necessary skills or be able to pass a background check,” said Frank Singleton, a spokesman for Wayne Farms, which owns the slaughterhouse. The firm held a job fair that attracted about 250 local residents, but few were hired, and some soon quit, daunted by the demanding work. Since the law took effect, he said,
“our turnover rate has gone through the roof.”
Sponsors of the law say it has done exactly what they had hoped, driving tens of thousands of illegal immigrants from the state. The U.S. Justice Department has challenged some parts of the law, and President Obama’s announcement Friday of a temporary legal amnesty for more than 1 million young undocumented immigrants nationwide clashes directly with Alabama’s legislation.
A variety of employers in Alabama said they have not been able to find enough legal residents
to replace the seasoned Hispanic field pickers, drywall hangers, landscapers and poultry workers who fled the state. There was an initial rush of job applications, they said, but many new employees quit or were let go.
Wayne Smith, 56,
raises tomatoes on a family farm in the misty hills of Chandler Mountain, a 40-minute drive from Albertville. Last fall, he said, his entire Mexican crew ran off, and Smith and his neighbors scoured the area for new workers. The growers pay $2 for every large box of picked tomatoes, and a worker must be able to pluck fast all day, bent over in the hot sun, to fill two or three dozen boxes.
“The whites lasted half a day, and the blacks wouldn’t come at all. The work was just too hot and hard for them,” Smith said. He dismissed the argument, often made by critics of illegal immigration, that Americans might do the work if offered a higher and hourly wage. “We’ve been using Mexicans for 30 years, and now they’ve been run off,” he said. “Everyone is worried about Arizona. If this law sticks, what’ll we do then?”
