    Seems pretty complicated. Yet seems pretty simple.
    Tariffs have been going-on all the while.
    We will see, anyway
    Nothing to be done at this time.
    Not like we can do anything individually.

    It’s not simple. And sure you can do something. Write your representative! Or you know, get into fights on Facebook with people who have no idea what they are talking about like everyone else lol.

    Incredibly informative and interesting video, earcutter. No wonder the VW microbuses disappeared. So chicken tariffs are ultimately responsible for trucks being today's most popular "cars." Wow, and the Big 3 automakers reap the added profits of making a far cheaper "car" sold at a premium price.

    Moral of the story -- the house wins and the consumer loses. Always.

    On a humorous note, love how American chickens are the anti-aphrodisiac.

    This is 2018, Tom. Kids these days will eat anything even remotely resembling food. Thus, your statement is up for debate.

    Besides, my mind dropped into the gutter shortly after hearing the hilarious claims from the French linking American chicken to damaged virility. Brings new meaning to the phrase...
