That's already been done. Too late.
It's not too late to acknowledge the fact and open-up the fact for discussion.

And now I'm gonna say that enduring a finical hardship has given me a bad attitude, and drove me to drinking.... and if I've read between the lines incorrectly.... sue me.
 
It breaks my heart that the new guy is hurting farmers so much and raising the price of food
Many of the people that voted.
I pray something will change.
we are farmers. I will let you know if President Trump does something that hurts us directly. If he does something that will hurt us directly and without a good reason, I will vote Democrat next time, even if I have never done so in the past. How is that?
He has the Congress and has good plans. You should at least give him a chance to see what actually gets accomplished.

But on the other hand, if he doesn't accomplish anything, it's all on him. But he's only been there for a few weeks and so far he hasn't done anything that upset me at all. I will definitely post it on here if he does
 
In his first few days in office, he released water from Northern California back down to Southern California, allowing thousands of farmers the water needed to begin planting produce again. Our reservoirs are now full, there is no talk of water rationing. The people in California, especially the farmers, are elated.

I farm as well and I will hold you to your promise. When that happens it may be to late.
 
Victimhood is a mind killer, A.I. manipulates many people in unhealthy ways,
Blaming President Trump for the worlds problems is like blaming Poor decrepit joe biden for the worlds problems.
We the people are the problem, we accept free money, we don't go shut down the local school board when they go crazy with gender studies for elementary age kids and we are the problem with health care when 70% of the population is overweight causing all sorts of health problems due to poor diet and lack of exercise.

Not everyone gets a trophy.
Sometime one needs to muddle thru and help their neighbor as much as possible and live as good and moral a life as possible.
 
Not all who are being rounded up are criminals.
No. But they were probably standing next to a criminal when said criminal got rounded up. They weren't targeted, but you wouldn't knowingly stand next to a target if you had an ounce of brains in your head.

The sanctuary cities are refusing to let ICE grab criminal illegals when they exit jail, so ICE has to go out into the community to get the criminals. And those who happen to just be standing next to a criminal (don't do that!) get caught up. ICE never said they weren't going to deport garden variety illegals. They simply said they wouldn't target them (yet).

Bottom line: (1) Don't knowingly stand next to criminals, and (2) urge your sanctuary city to hand over criminal illegals as they exit jail, so garden variety illegals don't have to worry about accidentally standing next to one.
 
Anyone who entered our country illegally IS a criminal and needs to be rounded up and deported!! I don't understand why some people don't understand that simple fact. I don't care how old, how young, how nice they are or how long they've been in the US, if they are illegal they are criminals and need to go.

And those that employ them.

Again, who is this "new guy" you keep referring too? If you mean president Trump, how is he hurting farmers and raising prices? I think you must be thinking about Biden. Trump has only been in office for two weeks. He's done a lot of great things, but hasn't done anything to "hurt farmers" or "raising food prices". Please explain.
 
Absolutely. I agree with that. Anyone who hires an illegal alien should receive jail time and a large fine.
there is a problem with that. How do you know they are illegal? Anyone can buy a drivers license or social security card.
When I was working, and hired contractors, they would bring copies of ids for their workers to prove they are here legally, but then you show up on a construction site, and there are different people working. If you asked why, " oh those got sent to another job, this is a different crew" and so on. Its almost impossible to catch. I don't know how you would catch any of them unless you do some background check to see if they are legit, or attach a finger print to every birth certificate to proof you are who you say you are or something and then you would have to check every single day to make sure they are still the same.

Son is going to get a "real ID" tomorrow so he can get in and out where he works , I wonder if that somehow is harder to get a fake one than the current drivers licenses

USaid bought 2.1 billion in American grain.

So how does buying American grain hurt US farmers? I'm confused. I guess you mean that shutting down USAID means they can't waste taxpayers dollars buying grain to send to some POS third world shyt hole country. The grain is sold on the open market, it won't go to waste. There are plenty of other buyers out there.

Keyword: "Buyers", not 'gift recipients'. I am perfectly ok with selling excesses we have, and shipping it overseas.
And it will be great if we don't have to bid against our own taxdollar$ to buy stuff.:mad:
 
If grain and other crops were not sold overseas it would create a glut of product on the market, and drive many farmers right out of business.
For agricultural news most Americans never see, go to https://www.farmprogress.com
They also have several weekly TV shows. Online or on RFD-TV.
I don't have a problem with a farmer selling his products anywhere he chooses to. I just have a problem with the government using our tax dollars to buy it give it to another country.

So you are ok with food stamps for Americans?
Food stamps 112.8 billion
