20% tariff on softwood lumber from Canada

Here in Canada they have a quota system so they don't overproduce. In the US they are wide open and produce more than they can sell. Never understood why they don't go with a quota system like us. Prices are much better when supply is not higher than demand. 

:lmao:

Here if you milk 50 cows and you want to milk more you buy quota from another farmer. Works well and keeps farmers in buisness. Eggs here are done in a similar way and the farmers do well. Do the same thing in the US and it would benefit the farmers in the same way. No taxpayer money involved here. Here if a farmer overproduced milk them it is disposed of. Farmer don't get paid for it. 

Damn, can't say I agree with that at all.  If you're better at producing than me you have to pay me for it.  FUBAR..

Bottom line is people are greedy. Without quotas they overproduce and in turn it drives prices down. And what does the farmer do? Produce more 

Funny how this is probably mainly acceptable in AG.   Can you imagine going into a GM auto plant and say sorry you can produce too much per worker or size of factory.   Pay Ford for that extra capacity.

Are you fucking retarded. Supply and demand is what dictates prices. If everyone is producing more than they can sell then the price of that product falls. If you are to stupid to see that then you have never been in buisness of any kind

Good for the consumer bad for the farmer.   Times its the other way around.  The free market drives technology and incentive to produce more with less.   Things like milk and eggs that are strictly food consumables are different than things like corn and soybeans that have way more uses.   If the market is overproducing it drives companies to find new markets for a cheap, renewable resource.

It works great because there is never more supply than demand. Farmers are their own worst enemy sometimes when it comes to production. Perfect example here is potatoes. They don't make enough money because the price is to low because of overproduction. What do the farmers do? Grow more to try to make more money.

I don't disagree that farmers are their own worst enemy but in the end we need to let those fail who should fail and let consumers get the lowest prices the market will find on its own.   I don't agree at all either with most farm subsidies or the govt telling them how much they can or cannot produce.

Actually you said.

I can only assume you meant prices are better for the farmer.  You seemed to flip to prices for consumers then.

What else should the govt control the supply and demand of?   Oil?  Electricity? Computers? Beer? Higher Education? Lawn mowers?  

Funny, save the farmers so they don't overproduce but fuck Big oil if they do. :lol:

This whole thread is about what's fair for the American and Canadian farmer and the profits or lack of that they make. It is not about the consumer. momo went out in left field as always like a moron.

Hey people are always yapping about farmers and how they are the backbone of the Country, I'm sick of hearing it to. But you can bet if the farmers in any country start to fail the Government of that country will step in and bail them out. At least this way it keeps the taxpayer out of it.

I think its hilarious that Canada would make farmers throw milk and eggs AWAY if they haven't purchased enough quota.   Thanks completely fucking retarded.
