Economy More socialism for farmers

[Yehudim]

“We're going to take some of that tariff money that we made, we're going to give it to our farmers,"

So he’s taking unlawful tarriff money and bypassing Congress to solely make this decision ?

The same Tarriffs that permanently destroyed businesses and is only a short term relief here while they will continue to struggle exporting to other countries and it will just be a circle jerk ?

Oh gee thanx Donald , once again you put a small patch on a huge shit hole you created.

It’s like we’re living in some sub Saharan African country. The Zimbabweization of America.

This is not about regular farm subsidies. It´s about a bailout with tax payer money for a problem Trump caused, not just once but twice. First and second term.
It must be nice for Trump to have such a clueless base to fall back on. I´m sure you can find a way to blame the dems, immigrants or trannies.

( clueless base ) That’s sums it up critical thinking skills are at an all time low and is sinking in recent years which would explain how Trump gets elected twice . If anyone thinks I’m joking go look it up . Lol

 

[LeonardoBjj]

Too bad every economist in the country said the tariffs wouldn't do anything besides hurt Americans. If only someone would have let Trump know that beforehand.

If only . . .

- Trump got a degree in economy. He knows what he is doing

 

[Deaths Head]

Yes, we're all aware it's an import tax. I was responding to the colloquialism "my tax money" from the OP which is language we usually use to refer to our income taxes and other money we send back to the IRS through W forms annually.

If you're going to nitpick that, then I can easily dismiss your bitching here, "but wait...I forgot Donald is in office" by highlighting the fact that Trump isn't actually redirecting the tariff revenue or drawing from treasury funds that are allocated by Congress. He is drawing the aid from existing USDA funds through the Department of Agriculture, and he has the authority (with precedent!) to do this.

We all just accept this aid is offset by collected tariff revenue because we accept that this is the effective cause of the agricultural sector's distress. The 80% figure is one I quoted off the top of my head from prior analysis evaluating the disruption through this lens.

I shouldn't have to spell this shit out. It's so basic.

You literally said it was true ,you looked it up afterwards so now it’s obvious…derp …derp.

You made up a very stupid number off the top of your head but I see you make a lot of stuff up on here …..

Trump is redirecting the funds so again your exposing yourself on here should I explain to or SPELL it out for YOU though as to how he’s doing it ….



Also this .

( President Trump has proposed redirecting revenue from tariffs to taxpayers in the form of $2,000 dividend checks for low- and middle-income Americans. However, this is currently just a proposal, and the money has not been redirected yet; it goes into the general fund of the Treasury Department. )

After you read this go look at my clueless base comment bc it applies to you as well .

Spare me. You read what I wrote and you immediately presumed the agricultural subsidies were derived from tariff revenue based on a false inference you drew from my comment. They are not. You enjoy no room to wax condescending, here, dumbass.

Trump is NOT directly redirecting tariff funding. The USDA funds are drawn from preexisting government coffers. It may be how Trump is framing it, it may be how I am framing it, and it may be how the press accepts to frame it, but it's not the logistics of how the funding is happening. Do you understand that?

Trump is tying the relief to estimates of cost increases to farmers based on tariff impact. But the funds themselves are tapped via the Community Credit Corporation within the Department of Agriculture. The person who is going to sign this aid package is going to be Brooke Rollins who will be coordinating her authority according to the will of President Trump, but this is still under her authority as she is the sitting chairperson on the Board of Directors of this program according to her position as head of the larger Department itself:

[AWilder]

Its amazing how little the average Trump voter on here knows about his actual policies. The immigrant/trannie culture war bullshit is quite the distraction for these morons
Millions losing healthcare, gutting worker and consumer rights and protection etc. Just doesnt register for them how extremely bad his policies are.

they'll demand a bailout when it affects them. wait unitl all the BBB things kick in after midterms. you thought it was a shit show now? get ready

 

[HARRISON_3]

and they'll just keep falling for it, over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and we're all supposed to thank them for the privilege. strip these idiots of their voting rights until they learn how to read

Awarded by FIFA.

 

[44nutman]

Whats the number for the fraud committed by people pardoned by Trump?

Well one guy he pardoned helped bring over 400 tons of drugs to the USA. I bet those drugs have killed way more Americans than have gamed the welfare system.

 

[44nutman]

This is not about regular farm subsidies. It´s about a bailout with tax payer money for a problem Trump caused, not just once but twice. First and second term.
It must be nice for Trump to have such a clueless base to fall back on. I´m sure you can find a way to blame the dems, immigrants or trannies.

What if the immigrant is a tranny? I guess you have to put on another strand of pearls to clutch if you run across a tranny immigrant.

There are farmers who got fucked by Bruise Hands his first term, that have voted for Desk Jockey Donny all 3 times.

I am still pissed I have morals, because I could be making a ton of money, grifting dumb Trump voters.

 

[heloder]

You better hurry! Trump has already grifted dumb Trump voters so well that he needs to take money from the rest of us and give it to them so they can donate more.

lol @ needing a bailout for a democrat hoax

Trump is proposing a $12B aid package for farmers hit hard by his trade war with China

A White House official says President Donald Trump is planning a $12 billion aid package for U.S. farmers who have struggled to sell their crops while getting hit by rising costs after the president raised tariffs on China as part of a broader trade war.

President Donald Trump is planning a $12 billion farm aid package, according to a White House official — a boost to farmers who have struggled to sell their crops while getting hit by rising costs after the president raised tariffs on China as part of a broader trade war.

Farmers have backed Trump politically, but his aggressive trade policies and frequently changing tariff rates have come under increasing scrutiny because of the impact on the agricultural sector and because of broader consumer worries.

Upwards of $11 billion is set aside for the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Farmer Bridge Assistance program, which the White House says will offer one-time payments to farmers for row crops.

Bailout for people who voted for this madness against their own self interests. I really don't like my tax money going to this. If you're a voting bloc that voted for trump you get government cash, if not you get funding stripped away from needed programs.

Is it just me or is he looking crazy orange now? Like more so than usual. His skin really is Cheeto colored in these pictures.

Also, when these lazy ass farmers going to pull themselves up by their bootstraps? Getting sick of my money paying for their lifestyle

 

[William Huggins]

They've already given 8 Billion to the Somalian engineers and doctors......

 

[William Huggins]

Whoa, that's almost as much for growing the country's food as Somali migrants get from their various welfare fraud schemes.

The US needs to set up a new pirate organisation and get these citizens active in something that will be a benefit to the US, imagine heavily armed Somalia pirates with stealth technology harassing the high seas and making life difficult for all that appose the Empire!!!!

 

[William Huggins]

Socialism doesn't work. We should not bail out failing businesses. That's my very simple point

If you want socialism for the farmers, talk to a liberal. Not me. And those liberals, given the snap hunger games bullshit just played with 16 million kids probably aren't happy with the you or maga.

It's that simple to me.

Socialism does work when it's being funded by people working their arses off in a capitalist system........ Come to the UK this place is literally flourishing..... They've figured it out!!! You can tax your way to prosperity!!!! It's true !!! There's this bottomless pity of money they've found..... It's called a financial black hole they're always talking about it and it keeps getting bigger...... Just a silly question, what does this mean - in front of a number?

In america feed the starving is considered socialism by magarats

"Rollins put the immediate value of the program at $11 billion — money that the White House said will offer one-time payments to row-crop farmers. Another $1 billion will be put aside for specialty crops as the administration works to better understand the circumstances for those farmers, Rollins said. The aid will move by the end of February, she said."

They're going to spend a billion dollars to determine the tarriffs are the cause of their struggles? Funny shit.

And then the Trumpers will find a way to turn it into a positive and claim he fixed a Biden problem and it won’t be trolling that's how dumb this country is right now . Lol
