All valid points. I definitely don’t have all of the answers by any stretch. I like to describe my stance on things as “from where I sit today“. I try not to be close minded when there is another side that I haven’t heard.
That is a good way to look at it and I do agree with some of your points. But I can also counter some of those as well. I think I’ve seen where less than 15% of soy and well under 15% of all corn actually goes to food production. Now you could say indirectly more does because it goes into cattle...
10000% disagree. Farmers need to figure how to be more efficient or go out of business. So sick of bailouts and government supported businesses. Any tariff money should go to the debt.
lol I was thinking the same thing and then trump issues a statement just now saying attacks on infrastructure are paused and Dow just over 1300 points from earlier this am.
That stuffs always so interesting to me. Not to hijack this thread but I sometimes let me mind wander about stuff on my farm as well. I have at least 4 different home places I can easily identify. One has the structure but the others I can always tell cause the vegetation is different and...
I don’t mind distancing socially and militarily with Canada and England. Keep like an arms length relationship. They are almost lost causes. England is basically a middle eastern country. The bloke from North Fartshire is rapidly being replaced by Akhmed from Syria, and as they do, they are...
I’m gonna play devils advocate. So the president has all this information, which I believe he obviously does, and he still attacked without a contingency for the strait and resulting energy prices? Mind you at a time when a huge part of his campaign was based on lower prices and sleepy joes...
I’ve invented cuss words getting the hydraulics off a skid steer. What I’ve seen, and do now, is essentially pump the collar a few times that supposedly releases pressure before trying it on pop it off
Crazy part is the “experts” sure did a hell of a job on both.
For the record I love the dismantling of Iran, I just think the economic foresight was insanely mismanaged. And it’s super comforting when the billionaire president and his merry band of corrupt hang ons tell me I should be ok with...
I disagree. Blanket tariffs were retarded. Seemingly not having a plan for Iran closing the strait. Inexcusable and absolutely unexplainable, which may break the economy. The big beautiful spending bill driving up debt making treasury buyers leery therefore decreasing the likelihood borrowing...
I agree but I think it’s a myriad of reasons. Some of its wars, some support that but I’d say everything besides the border has been an abject failure. The economy is what’s so surprising to me. I’m not sure it’s even better than Biden’s.
