Been watching a few utube vid's of farmers cryin a river over tariffs.
Frankly, farmers are expert whiners, about everything. "weather is too hot/too cold/too wet/too dry, government price supports aren't fat enough, government doesn't protect them from competition enough". I remember a piece in Newsweek, years ago, a candidate for POTUS in Iowa, talking with farmers. While the cameras were rolling, the farmers cried a river about how hard it is to make ends meet farming. After the cameras were turned off, the candidate turned to one of the farmers, to ask what he was going to do for the rest of the winter. The farmer and his wife were taking off for three months in Hawaii. My mom retired to Arizona. A lot of her neighbors in the retirement community were retired plains farmers. They all agreed, the farmers that got in trouble were bad businessmen.
