Possibly to you I am retarded. That does not bother me since I know you are.Are you quite possibly retarded? Corn purchases have nothing to do with Trump or Tariffs...
The point is that tariffs have not affected China's need for our food products.
Tariffs have to do with bringing China to the bargaining table. Did you hear the latest? China has reopened trade agreement negotiations.
Your simplistic hypothetical is a strawman argument.Okay. China makes a Widget for 2.00. Trump throws a fifty cent Tariff on it for 2.50. It's still cheaper than the American made widget that costs 3.00. Soooooo- Who is paying that fifty cents? Not China. It's the consumer/end user.
He hasn't raised my taxes. China responds to tariffs by devaluing their currency.So Trump raises your taxes and you cheer him because... reasons.
If I don't buy the Chinese goods, I don't pay for any tariffs that may have been levied on them.
