Penny for your thoughts...cause that's about all farmers can afford

"Beijing basically stopped importing U.S. soybeans in 2018 and promised to ramp purchases in 2019 as negotiations moved forward in early 2019. But China has now reportedly put a hold on buying U.S. soybeans as talks sour, and the pain is being felt once again in the U.S. heartland.

“We’re pretty helpless out here,” Glenn Brunkow, a Kansas-based farmer who grows corn and soybeans, told Yahoo Finance. “We just hope that this will resolve in the near future and it will benefit the U.S. and some of the trade imbalances. We’re cautiously optimistic but … our patience is running thin.”


Good luck with that. Now the American farmer is learning how Stormy Daniels felt...and they probably won't see nearly as much money as her. MAGA!

^^^That's the least of our worries cause every other vegetable and produce also comes from them. If I were them, I'd double the price so I'm covered for the tariff AND I still make more profit to make up for the lost volume. MAGA! (Mexican Ag Gouges Americans)

"China needs us way more than we need them."

...because we are so good at being a monocropper. You support Tramp and his thinking on selling as much as we can to China, but then you say that's not the way we should be farming...que??

"Trump did the right thing..."

If you agree with Tramp, you're agreeing that we should sell countries as much as we can to balance (or overbalance) trade with other countries. "America first." In order to sell as much as we can, we have to produce as much as we can. MAGA!

For about the last year China has gone without most of its US soybeans. Given a little time, they will find willing farmers around the world as constant sources of beans and the need for US beans will dwindle unless the US undercuts the going price, making farmers take it in the shorts again.

Pork trading (a commodity) will be just like soybeans (another commodity).

(...uhhhh, look in the mirror)

No, it has more to do (for Tramp) with balance of trade, with stealing tech being one piece of the overall argument.

And I assure you I trust the Chi about as much as I trust Tramp...well maybe just a hair more than...

"you can't hate Trump so much that you actually support China."

Wellllll, lets see. I can hate Tramp supporting Kim's opinion of "Biden's low IQ"... And let's not even get into Putin and meddling.
I think I'll call both of those really f_cked. Do you support Tramp in those two areas? You can hate Tramp without "supporting" the other.

I don't support Tramp in a lot of things (probably obvious by now). I think China has a lot of issues that should/need to be corrected (for their good and for our good). But you know there's no rule that says we must always sell more to countries than we get from them or that we should always "win" and they should always "lose." Sometimes in being the world economic leader you take the short straw to be "the good guy" in later negotiations. Where that balance of too short of a straw is is the art of diplomacy and international politics/economics. It's not just who has the largest sledgehammer.

So back to how do we sell to support our collective interest without producing as much as we can???? I'm interested in hearing your answer.

I, for one, am glad our farmers are making a personal financial sacrifice to to save the intellectual property of Facebook, GM, IBM, and other multinational corporations.

I am also happy to see consumers support tariffs. Americans are rich enough to pay more for gasoline, cars, food, and everything imported from China and Mexico. Americans love to shop and spend, so the higher prices will be spread all around and no one will be hurt too much.

We need to teach Honduras a lesson.

And speaking of lessons, we need to insult other countries much more! This is especially true of Mexico, Canada and Iran. They are lucky we have not taken them over and made their people slaves.

Our great friends, Saudi Arabia, even made Trump an honorary infidel.

MAGA!
