    Bend over beef farmers. No, not the big farmers - they will get welfare checks. The little beef farmers will get bankruptcy.

      He just took a sledgehammer to the last remaining positive revenue generating sector in U.S. agriculture.

      The U.S. agricultural sector is entering a depression the likes of which hasn’t been seen since the 1930’s. Every major sector is taking a beating. Across the entire country farm bankruptcies have started to climb. A bumper crop in many locations is the only reason that more farmers didn’t go under already. In my opinion, it’s barely the tip of an iceberg, this year is going to be very, very bad.

      The vast majority of those going bankrupt, voted for it.

          It will be an extremely weak and embarrassing punch. The likes of which will cause generations to laugh at your pathetic attempt recorded on video.

        I heard the Hittites burned out and the Philistines changed their name to something more modern.

            The Hittite empire vanished in the Bronce Age collaps without any succesors whatsoever.

            The Philistine city states, on the other hand, survived the Bronce Age collaps and thrived for millenia under changing overlords, Ashdod being destroyed as late as 1948 and Gaza still standing. Well, more or less.

          Mostly as a political prop but also for people like Vought to point to as evidence that their shared “burn down the government” philosophy is good for the economy.
