Bullshit!

Why would I drive that far and waste my time in a border line up to save a couple of dollars on some crappy cheese and milk? I don't drink milk and I don't eat enough cheese to make that effort worthwhile.

You were wrong about my shopping in the states. Get over it. It's not the end of the world.

That far? It's closer than where you work and easier to get to. You already said you've done it. That is why it's bullshit.

Canada better watch out. We all learned from Trump's brilliantly executed health care bill that the man is a master negotiator. Maybe we should send Brian Mulroney to Mar-a-Lago to serenade Trump with Irish folk songs.

I love negotiations.

So Donald talks tough. Meh. He's just getting ready to negotiate a new deal. Hey, he's a new dealer! Ha ha!

Canada, don't worry 'bout it. All trade deals start like that. Tis nothing.

Is it fair that Canadian milk processors can bypass the quota price consumers are forced to pay to subsidize producers and also buy at market price from anywhere in the planet but the US and sell that yogurt to you at the same price as quota sourced milk?

That damn comb over is almost as bad as Big Erns on the movie Kingpin. With his kind of cash he could get that Bosley treatment. :).

By gawd now I do feel secure we got Kid Rock and Ted 'shoot eveyone " Nugent in the loop. :).

Proof that if you dream it you can be it. As nice as that sentiment is, it has had some unexpected repercussions. The Clampetts have moved into the whitehouse.

Depends on whether or not you want a dairy industry that is not based on factory farms. However, in the US case it appears to be a case of the pot calling the kettle black. https://farm.ewg.org/progdetail.php?fips=00000&progcode=dairy&regionname=theUnitedStates

The border line ups are from Canadians going for gas and cheese .
