Highly concerning from a Ranchers standpoint!

Won't help the price of sirloin and ribeye.
I go to a local small grocer butcher, and their price seems better than chains. Especially for what I get.

I'll stop by at 5:00. Fire up the grill. Hopefully you have some vegan options like corn on the cob and banana pudding.

Are you kidding? Banana pudding is way too many Weight Watcher points!

Who believes this? If that happens, it's gonna be a cold winter in the upper Midwest.

This is written by Ryan Williams (A Canadian)

The Canada-U.S. trade deal didn't collapse over bourbon. It collapsed when the fine print got much bigger than the headline.

Here's what we know now.

Trump said Tuesday the two countries had a deal, subject to final documents. Greer said the U.S. was happy with where things landed.

Then Washington's internal divisions surfaced.

The Washington Post reports Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Peter Navarro pushed back against Greer over tariff relief, arguing the U.S. was giving away too much.

By the end, the disputes included:

Heavy trucks: the U.S. sought to exclude vehicles including Ford F-350/F-450 production in Oakville and GM Silverado production from improved tariff treatment.

Future trade deals: Carney says the U.S. wanted terms that would curtail Canada's ability to make new trade agreements and require greater alignment with U.S. policy toward third countries.

Critical minerals: reports say Washington sought preferential access or a right of first refusal. Carney says Canada would "never give exclusive access."

French language, culture and digital policy: Carney says U.S. demands touched subsidies, cultural protections, French-language policy and even information required on Canadian products. That likely included some of the Liberal government's digital and cultural laws, potentially measures like C-18 and streaming/content rules, which Washington has viewed as trade irritants. Some of those changes may actually have been good for Canadians.

CUSMA itself: the new 50% tariffs now hit some goods that previously enjoyed preferential treatment under the existing continental trade agreement.

There is one more important point.

The sovereignty issue is not entirely new.

Back in 2018, under Trudeau and Freeland, Canada already signed CUSMA Article 32.10, which gave the U.S. and Mexico major leverage if Canada pursued a free-trade deal with a so-called non-market country, widely understood to mean China.

So yes, Canada had already accepted some U.S. influence over future trade agreements.

The question is whether Washington wanted to go further this time while still keeping major tariffs on Canadian goods.

One of the biggest failures of her plan was that the wording of it said a child has to get a vegetable on their plate (unless allergic). This resulted in kids getting something no matter if they wanted it or not and just throwing it away. Meaning wasted food and increased trash.

They eventually took it out but the idea of forcing a kid to take a vegetable or fruit or any other food when they plainly say no is stupid.

Yup. I have said it for months. People vote with their wallets and it is why the Republicans are going to get slaughtered at polls.

I read something last week (wish I could find it now to link) that subscription cancellations were at an all time high with the reason listed as price, needing to save money, etc. This was for streaming services, SiriusXM, car/navigation services (which why would anyone ever pay for this I don't get- I used my navigation in my truck for about a year but refused to pay $75 to update it when there are free map apps that connect to the truck to tell the directions the same as the built in navigation), food delivery, etc.

In an affluent society the next generation has a higher expectation of where they should be starting out. In the boom times of the 1959s, young families could get a house pretty easily. Of course, that house was comparatively small in size compared to what is built now.
So to answer your question, you need to raise your expectations and be sour about not being able to get a bigger house and greater vacations.

I am also mainstream America and doing okay but the world does not revolve around me.

I will always remember Professor David McBurney and my first day of Accounting 101 at Baylor in 1981. He told us that only two of us (out of about 40) will have a higher standard of living our parents. Most of us looked around at each other and laughed. Turns out he was right. He just missed it by a generation.
