msj Posted January 26, 2017 Report Posted January 26, 2017 So, are the Mexicans going to pay under this scheme or not? If a believer demands that I, as a non-believer, observe his taboos in the public domain, he is not asking for my respect but for my submission. And that is incompatible with a secular democracy.

eyeball Posted January 26, 2017 Report Posted January 26, 2017 Not if they.counter with a tariff on US imports. I think the world should be rallying around Mexico myself. The thought that Canada might stab Mexico in the back sickens me. 1 A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

?Impact Posted January 26, 2017 Report Posted January 26, 2017 Time for Canada to focus on Europe and forget Trade Wars Trump. Lots of our produce could be imported from Spain through that new container terminal they are building in Cape Breton.

Does Canada even export food to the US?

Hal 9000 Posted January 27, 2017 Report Posted January 27, 2017 They'll find a solution that makes them both look good. Why you people worry so much simply amazes me. The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so. - Ronald Reagan I have said that the Western world is just as violent as the Islamic world - Dialamah Europe seems to excel at fooling people to immigrate there from the ME only to chew them up and spit them back. - Eyeball Unfortunately our policies have contributed to retarding and limiting their (Muslim's) society's natural progression towards the same enlightened state we take for granted. - Eyeball
H10 Posted January 27, 2017 Report Posted January 27, 2017 So because Mexico won't pay for the wall, America is going to tax Americans to pay for the wall, then put another tax on imported goods from Mexico that American consumers will have to pay? Sounds like America is paying twice for the wall, HAHAHAHAH. The only way to really make Mexico to pay for it, would be to make mexican nationals crossing the border pay a fee at the border for the wall. If you charge the 1 million mexicans who cross the border every day $100 per crossing, you will get your $17 billion back eventually.

Derek 2.0 Posted January 27, 2017 Report Posted January 27, 2017 And the winner is...............The biggest Mexican imports to the United States are Cars and Trucks, car parts and oil. American consumer prices will rise due to increased American labor rates, but who are the Mexicans going to sell full sized trucks and SUVs to?
