You shouldn't talk shit about things you know not. There is no trade war
that is affecting agriculture to any large degree. That's just clueless
media and Democrat crap.

Don't even try to insert the milk producer bankruptcy into this because
that was caused by Walmart opening their own dairies.

It's evident you know absolutely nothing about farming, agricultural
commodities and trade. Do yourself a favor, look up the Food and
Agriculture Act of 1965, and prior to that the Soil Bank.

If you want to whine about agricultural subsidies, consider that imports
grew by 6-7% last year and accounted for $130 billion. It's resulted in a
trade surplus of $10 billion, the lowest it's been since 2005.

What happens when a trade surplus lowers? Think about it.

Fresh fruit imports have increased to 53.1%, up from 23% in 1975.

You and your families are the primary consumers of imported food produce
whether you want to acknowledge it or not.

NAFTA. South American produce. The SA produce tastes different than than
that grown in the USA. I prefer American produce and pay a little more to
get it. You can keep eating the imported stuff with banned chemicals on
it. That's probably why your and your kids have so many health and
learning issues.

You want to blame Trump for the results from actions of previous
administrations spanning 60 years ... ?

I guess it's really true liberals don't learn anything from history, life,
or much of anything at all.
