There are always plans and hedges to cover losing money. Too bad our country doesn't watch over its citizens like business do their income.

Dang.
“We’re in a free fall out here in agriculture. We've seen a 30 percent decrease in prices of soybeans, and this isn't all about soybeans," Gibbs said.
"With the geopolitical turmoil that the president has thrown into the mix over the last year, the markets just don't have anywhere to go," he added.

People claim to believe in the free market you tariffs are anti free market and people are loving the idea. Get China and Mexico. But then, what else in new in the brain trust of opinion.

I think we are not hearing the whole story on why there are tariffs in the first place.

The pres thinks it punishes a country. The citizens end up simply paying more. Sometimes there isn't enough product without the imports to use only the countries output.

Isn't that the plan to bring American businesses back who sold out the citizenry to obtain cheap labor over seas?

(CNN)Republican senators railed against President Donald Trump's threatened tariffs against Mexico in a private lunch on Tuesday with White House and Justice Department officials, who struggled to explain their legal process for implementing the new levies.
Roughly a half dozen GOP senators stood to speak about why the decision to impose tariffs on Mexico was ill-advised, a person who attended the lunch told CNN.
The members insisted Trump hold off on any declarations until he can brief members personally on the plan, according to this person. But with Trump in Europe and members scheduled to leave for D-Day commemorations, that may not be possible before Monday's deadline for activating the first band of 5% tariffs on all goods coming from Mexico.
One GOP Senate aide said there were few clear answers given at the lunch.
"They were asked repeatedly how this will work and they couldn't answer," the aide said.
Ohio Republican Sen. Rob Portman, who was the US trade representative under President George W. Bush, said after the lunch that "it wasn't really a policy discussion per se."
When asked about the feeling in the room, Portman added: "No one did not express concern."
