Farmers across the United States say they could face financial ruin – unless there is a huge taxpayer-funded bail out to compensate for losses generated by Donald Trump’s sweeping cuts and chaotic tariffs.
Need that sweet, sweet socalism. Last time Trump chipped in some few billion tax dollars to help out the “welfare queen” farmers, I assume they think he will again as they go cap in hand amd tug thier forelock to m’lord ?
So taxpayers need to pay more for the product itself AND taxes to subsidize the farmers who are impacted by the tariffs?
I’m starting to think these tariffs weren’t such a good idea!
Correct, if they get a bailout, it will come from tariff money. This could mean almost all the money made on this will just go back to them anyway, which makes you ask the question… whyyyy.
It’s not like this is even hypothetical. It literally happened during his last term! 92% was returned to the farmers during that bailout.
