    At $28 billion so far, the farm rescue is more than twice as expensive as

    the 2009 bailout of Detroit’s Big Three automakers, which cost taxpayers $12 billion

    Imagine if we spent $28billion to subsidize small circuit board

    making companies in Baltimore and Detroit and Houston and Gary Indiana.

    Now we will see just how effective the tariff policy was. China was brought to their knees.

    As i said...i want to see whats in the announced 'truce'. Therr needs to be language on IP theft or else its pointless. But China had to make a deal for many reasons most of which were skyrocketing pork prices.

    And, the US hasnt even lifted tariffs. Just suspended new ones.
