I don’t rely on Medicare, Medicaid or VA. The DOD funding won’t be touched. Other departments are scrambling and diverting funds from their missions to find offices. Business for me is booming. I have trips set for the next three weeks and was out last week. Business is like our normal fiscal year end rush right now. If you consider being amazed by stupidity as suffering, I guess so. I’m a middle age white guy that pulled a decent chunk out of the market waiting for the Trumpcession and buy in when he tanks the market. Hopefully the suffering he promised his followers will be temporary.

Increased tariffs to Canada is going to hit me in the pocket this April 1 if things stay the same. Notice on front page of local newspaper I subscribe to is raising price $2:00 a month.

That bites the big one bigfoot. Sorry for your loss especially with how thin the newspaper is nowadays 😞 Son bought a truck today from Texas with a $55,000 book value for $14,000 cash. Still great deals out there on how to spend your money just have to search, be a little lucky and fast. Supposably that truck new is going to jump $15,000 if Trump ever goes through with his plan.

Like any time that inflation goes up, disposable income goes down. The ladies will ask for more in the back rooms, but possible also go down as well. So, maybe not a bad thing?

As far as this business with the tariffs go I don’t pretend to know o understand much about it. I just hope President Trump knows what he’s doing. As far as I can tell he is trying to to level the playing field.

I wish it was just about leveling the playing field, bigfoot. But now he's using it as ammunition to fire at countries over issues that have nothing to do with trade. For me, it's a little worrisome. I hope he knows what he's doing,too.

Dems couldnt even stand for the little kid with brain cancer getting a Secret Service ID-to his great pleasure.
Yes, that was a disgrace for the democratic party, I agree. Trump should have announced to the boy and tv audience they just made a big cut to cancer research funds.

Well, judging by the fact that after Trump announced the tariffs, Canada and Mexico both then called his bluff, gave no concessions and instead Canada even announced retaliatory tariffs of their own… then the market took a dip, and also a number of economic forecasts have deteriorated in the last few weeks suggesting a recession… so then Trump backtracked (again) and postponed tariffs until April. But Canada even decided they are gonna keep their tariffs in place anyway, despite Trump postponing our tariffs on them. Does this sound like somebody that knows what they’re doing? Because you know what markets love? Chaos and uncertainty! Wait until the next couple jobs reports when all the laid off federal workers start showing up in the unemployment numbers. Oh yea and we almost certainly have a government shutdown to look forward to. I’m really looking forward to the next phase of this mindfukk where MAGA starts telling everybody how this is all part of his master plan and he has to ruin the economy first and the entire country has to suffer through a depression for our own good.

Not sure if you edited this post or I just can’t find your other, if someone else posted, my bad. In regard to the Canadian tariffs of close to 300%. Not sure if you looked into it at all. If so search “Canadian TRQ”. There is a ton of info to sort through. I don’t know of exactly when it started, the dates are out there somewhere. Due to multiple events, their domestic agricultural industry was almost destroyed. Since they don’t have the $Bs that our government has to pay off farmers for bad seasons due to events out of their control or even pay them not to farm, they set up a quota system. With this, until they reach their quota for domestic milk production or cheese, or soy beans or whatever, they tariff every country’s import on those items. Once their domestic goals are hit, they take away the tariff. I think we could all agree that keeping a country’s domestic food supply available is pretty high on the list of basic survival. They made sure it was part of NAFTA and USMCA. The US is “the bread basket of the world” and has $Bs in emergency funds to counter disasters or other that threaten our ag industry, so no real need for that quota system. We may actually have it written on the books somewhere though?

Pretty sure there were some guitar guys on here, no?
There is a rumor going around the internet that Andy Mooney sent a letter to FMIC dealers stating that all Mexican and Chinese FMIC products may go up 10-25% in price starting in April, and they are urging their dealers to order as much inventory as possible in March before the tariffs kick in (which by now we know they may or may not even do LOL!).
FMIC owns a ton of popular musical instrument brands like fender, squier, gretsch, Jackson, charvel and others.
I think it’s a pretty safe bet that FMIC isnt the only company that will be doing this, and surely many other companies in many different industries are going to be adopting similar strategies to cope with Trump screwing up the economy.
Chaos, uncertainty and higher prices - that’s what MAGA calls winning I guess?

It is certainly chaotic. Tough to get a bead on anything that is happening in the government right now. But, that's fine, I can handle some chaos, I'll make it. I truly feel bad for Americans who are actively losing their jobs because of this chaos or who are fearful, in the midst of the chaos that their lives/jobs will be disrupted...that's real chaos. I cannot for the life of me understand the glee and enjoyment that some get over the pain and suffering of other Americans for some apparent political win. It's a tough time for many people.

Don't blame MAGA blame them. If this is what you call chaos heck you should have grown up in the 60's and 70's Used to sit under our desks waiting for the world to end,survived that then had to deal with Vietnam you think the va and military treated like crap now you should have been in then,then you had gas shortages,wage and price controls you name it interest rates 15 to 20%,riots in streets cities burning really things are tame now we always had chaos we will get over it.

Recall being stationed in Bostons North End Navy Yard for a bit and being able to look off for days on end at the heavy smoke from fires burning in the riots during the late 60s.
Could see the USS Constitution and the smoke at the same time lol.

I agree, there's plenty of blame to go around. I also agree with the fact that the Vietnam era etc...was much more chaotic in many ways. But, there is some new territory here and some new threats.

That’s classic conservative logic there isn’t it? Don’t blame the idiots that touched the hot stove, blame the people that said “hey don’t touch the hot stove”. You seem like the kind of guy who blames a woman when her husband puts her in the hospital.
