Send it to your MAGA relatives.

(595 posts)This is a real interesting resource link -- you can click on any state and see just how the Turd's tariffs with Canada will effect that State's economy given the State's economic ties and import/export trade. I just used Kansas as an example.
Canada is the #2 export market for Kansas: $2.6 Billion dollars in "exports" and $2.1 Billion dollars in "imports" with Canada.
Just imagine a 25% increased tariff on those goods and services? It's an economic bloodbath for the State of Kansas. Now, wrap your mind around the +/- 8x economic "ripple effects" of those economic losses as they "ripple" through the local Kansas economies in the cities and small towns: $4.7 Billion x .25% tariff = $1.175 Billion x 8 (ripple effect) = $9.4 Billion dollars. Now, think about this: In 2024, Kansas's total tax revenue was estimated to be around $10.183 billion. This was a 9.7% increase from the previous year's total receipts. Ask yourself what a $9.4 Billion dollar loss to the Kansas economy proximately caused by the Turd's Canadian tariffs is going to do to the Kansas tax revenue for fiscal year 2025? It is not a pretty picture -- a whole lot of people are going to lose their jobs.
That's just Canada alone -- it does not include Mexico and China. All those stupid dumbfucks in Republican red state Kansas are about to receive just what they voted for in the November election.
Check out your State at this link from the above article and see just how bad the Turd's hateful economic hammer will be on where you live and work:
