I'm not sure, I'm not a big tequila person.

The car companies have plenty of plants in Mexico. I got rid of my truck last year and got a Tahoe and the sticker says it was made at the Arlington plant in Texas.

It seems to me many more products and clothing are made in China than Mexico.

Likely we will in the form of higher prices for the goods that have higher tariffs.



Jeeez it's been so long since ive talked tariffs.

When Trump is talking adding the "tax", is he meaning that Mexico will have to pay higher tariffs to import their goods?

And in return, Mexico would raise the prices of their products?

Arent ppl making tequila here in the states these days-

$74 billion in cars/trucks, $21 billion in agriculture products (our 2nd largest provider), along with machinery, medical instruments, and mineral fuels.

If if we impose tariff on Mexico, they in turn raise prices and WE pay more.

Wall is one of the dumbest ideas I've heard in my lifetime and will solve nothing. $8-$24 billion to construct and hundreds of millions a year to maintain.....idiots.

A 20 billion dollar wall will lose to a 20 dollar ladder.

People always find a way. If it's a 40 ft wall.....there will be 41 foot ladders.



True, but im sure its already difficult enough ppl from Mexico trying to slip their way to the border.

Imagine on top of that having to carry/haul something like that which would probably have to be in separate pieces until put together on the spot.

You would then have to have a 2nd ladder for however many ppl reach the top of the wall to somehow simultaneously pull up.

Not as easy as it might seem & there will be a an abundance of injuries, deaths, and ppl left behind.

40ft itself very damn high.

Imagine 50-55...

Ah ok.

But i thougbt ive heard somewhere in the past that its being made in the states but called something else....??

Just like Champagne or Cognac in France must be made there to be considered to bear the name, tequila can only be called tequila if it is produced and bottled in Mexico in the state of Jalisco and limited regions in the Mexican states of Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit and Tamaulipas.

US Companies are making spirits made with 100% agave, but they can't be called tequila.

I understand that. Make it more difficult for them to get in. People are for that.....but then why aren't people for making it more difficult to get guns and ammunition? Seems to me that making it harder for criminals to get here and for them to get weapons is a good thing no?

Racist xenophobes have never been accused of being smart. Just spew something as stupid as "a wall" and these idiots would vote for it without realizing the costs to US taxpayers. The odds of Mexico paying for the wall is about as good as Trump paying all the contractors he stiffed.

Zit,
Who cares what Hillary thinks- she's done. So rather than spewing your usual "conservative" bull shit, address this issue of building the stupid wall as well as ongoing costs to maintain it against the results it would produce.

Trump's entire clothing line is made in Mexico. I looked at one of my dress shirts I have of his. Sure enough... LOL!
