So what product are you producing that the supermarket would purchase from you?
Australia populatin 25million , USA 350million , yet USA has a trade surplus with Australia , meaning per capita Australian buy far more American made goods than viseversa, so explain why Trump needs to tarif Australia? Ill wait

Posted in: Trump to put 25% tariffs on Japan and S Korea; new import taxes on 5 other nations See in context
To be fair 25% still generous compared that to unchanged 700% tariff that being imposed by Japan for US Rice.
700% tariff over 700000 tonnes, Now tell me how many factories in Japan does Amerca have makingfor the J market? Japanese companies employs 100s thousands of Amefcians making Japanese car for the American market, 70% of J cars sold in the US are made in the US.
Korea Japan should just send their own letter, 25% tariifs on all American made products sold in Japan

tell that to the 11 million Americans thatll lose their medicaid, latest study shows that an estiated 50000 AMericans will liely die without that support, these are lederly the poorest Americans, guess which states this proporional affects the most , yes red once.
Just like his 1st term and the same and only legislation that Trump passed, massive tax cuts for the richest AMericans. This time around its expected to raise the debt by a record 10trillion, and Trump record.
Get this the Big BS bill is all for the richest AMricans all becuase they want a 1.5% cut in their taxes.
I expect a bloodbath come the midterms, even worse than in 2018

Not sure why the left now all of a sudden have become budget critics.
they were budget critics when Trump added a record 8.1 trillion to the debt in his 1st term, and every economist has stated that the passage of this bill will even break that estimated 10trillion.

We vaccinated all of our chickens so now the eggs can't be sold anywhere but in the US. Good going I guess.
this is why free range eggs are a waste of time, as soon as they come in contact with wild birds with birdflu, the entire flock is decimated.
caged birds inside a building is the only way to ensure that th hens dont get infected, no caged birds isnt a perfect option, but its the best weve got currectly

I haven't been back to the U.S. in about 15 years or so, and it seems that I read something every day that makes me realize that I really don't want to go back, even for a visit.
I have a J friend who goes to the US every couple years on business, last trip in 2024 he was blown away at the cost of eveything, even McDonalds was so high he decided to stay in the company apartment and cook, before hed just eat out becuase it was reasonable

Haven't heard the whining about eggs for a while. What happened?
because bird flue has run its course , they now have laying hens not infected, oh and its probably becuase the cost of grociers in every sector continues to go up , go read these charts , nearly everyone of them shows increases, except eggs.

t's a simple reality that the mainstream media hates the current US president, and no matter what occurs, it will be spun in a negative light, or just ignored for not fitting the negative narrative.
welcome to reality of what Biden had to face, Trump won the election on the high cost of living, nothing hes done has chnaged that in fact prices are only going up, remeber when the DOW was at 45000 under Biden, that didnt save him. People dont care about the markets they care about cost of living. oh and Q2 is GDP is expected to be down and Q3 is expected to be worse, Trump still hasnt fixed andything on bring costs down
GDP growth is expect to be down in 2025 to around 1.6% thats a far cry from Bidens 2.8% in 2024
