Easy peasy, incarcerate more people, then prison labor makes up the difference.
Easy peasy, incarcerate more people, then prison labor makes up the difference.Farmers will have trouble finding workers willing to do the labor. I don't live in a farming town, but we have a stupid amount of Orange groves. Any person can walk off the street and instantly get a job picking oranges here. White people refuse to do this work, I know unemployed ones who I tell them "you can go pick oranges" they say "fuck that" It's 99% illegals, and they'll get deported if Trump has his way. Without the illegals I have no clue how these oranges will get picked. And I think to this day, Riverside's one of the biggest sources for Oranges in the entire US.
If the orange groves out here have to start paying white people $20 an hour to pick them, OJ will be out of most peoples price range.
Farmers make up a tiny portion of the "rural" population but are also the most heavily subsidized population in the US. They won't get hurt.
The majority of rural folks are aren't farmers and are going to get bit by higher prices.
None of dem dere foreigners would ever retaliate with da tariffs thingies. They know we da boss.The way farmers might get hit is if there are retaliatory tariffs on US agricultural exports. That in turn could cause a general recession either in those rural areas specifically, or even globally, that will hurt everyone else.

It appears Trump forgot about his NAFTA 2.0 trade agreement that he put in place his first term. Not a suprise that he will go back on his own trade agreement, which is going to open up a bigger can of worms.Well, things are going swell and he’s not even in office yet. 25% tariffs to Mexico and Canada? I’ll say it again… you guys are fucked.
I personally will pay more for American made when possible.Americans hate price increases for any reason and are most certainly not willing to pay more for American made products. China is only the third largest US trade partner behind Mexico and Canada.
Tariffs will solve all problems according to him. High prices? Tarrifs. Unemployment? Tarrifs. Lung cancer? Tarrifs.
They generally fail to do anything but raise prices and invite retaliation that is damaging to currently viable businesses.
I am a 51 yr old who will climb poles with hooks on to get the upload speed of the internet where it should be. Like tomorrow I might add.More of them should have showed up to vote then. Sucks for those who did. The country as a whole needs to learn a hard lesson. Easy times weak men etc etc that idiots like to throw out there without realizing they are the weak men who voted for an authoritarian because of some weak economic complaints during one of the most prosperous times in the history of civilization.
Dropped my employer HC that went up 10% to 400 BI-WEEKLY, to an ACA plan that is maybe 90 a month. I have already broke 10k on my portion of the employer health care share. Which does not count towards a deductible.Well given that they appear to want to gut the ACA that is probably going to happen!
I have purchased all of the new 9800x3d rig ahead of time. I just need 1 more 4TB M.2 before i bend the hardline tubing to make the swap.*raises his hand*
Yep, we are finishing a kitchen remodel next year that includes a new microwave, range hood, oven, and cooking surface. I've already noticed the prices on my wife's preferred appliances have increased!
We're gonna go purchase these things now and leave em in my garage until we do the remodel. Sucks if there's an issue with the appliance when we finally get around to installing them and turning them on.
Awesome for Ohio and Michigan. So much winning I am already tired of the winningThis is going to be great for Trump's midwest voters.
Bruh… I also just signed a contract to replace my roof for $11k cash!! That wasn't slated to be done until after my kitchen. 😟They are already raising prices in anticipation of the Tariffs. Meaning not only tech companies.
I know ppl crying about 30 bucks over 7800x msrp are just idk complainers. It will be more than that after tariffs.Bruh… I also just signed a contract to replace my roof for $11k cash!! That wasn't slated to be done until after my kitchen. 😟
Yup how could he considered a great deal maker when everyone knows he goes back on his own words.It appears Trump forgot about his NAFTA 2.0 trade agreement that he put in place his first term. Not a suprise that he will go back on his own trade agreement, which is going to open up a bigger can of worms.
I don’t think they would pick them even for $20/hr. If the average American was willing to get their hands dirty there wouldn’t be any shortage of welders, plumbers, HVAC techs, auto techs, etc. Those jobs can pay six figures if you’re certified.Farmers will have trouble finding workers willing to do the labor.

Yeah, that's the real cost of goods when you don't have cheap labor subsidizing the cost.If the orange groves out here have to start paying white people $20 an hour to pick them, OJ will be out of most peoples price range.
