Actually Argentina got $20 Billion so it's like 1,000x worse
And no those customers don't want to buy our crops anymore BECAUSE WE WERE GIANT ASSHATS so we better put our big boy capitalist pants on and find new ways to earn a living
I thought it got doubled to 40 billion.
You're right
So it's actually 2,000x worse
What's an extra 20 billion between despots? Like a rounding error eh? Actually unsure on the Argentina side but if Trump okays billions I think that says enough.
I thought they were referring to the Argentina Soybean sales to China. What is the value of 10 cargo ships of soybeans?
Before the 2018 trade war, the soybean experts to China were only $12.8 billion. And that was the top. It's been significantly less since then even before this second full stop.
i'm sure if we all hit the pavement and go country to country we'll find someone willing to buy our exports. there's plenty of money out there for people who are willing to work for it
"Guys, could you help me kill US farming? I'll give you money?"
they should be GRATEFUL that tyson, perdue, foster farms or any of the large farms corporation allows them to work for them.
it went to 40bn, its also alot worst, because that 40bn is going to bessenets friends who invested badly in argentina, so they are getting profit off of that aid.
