While we have seen and read about the carnage in agriculture and this week saw the impacts on US manufacturing, a less obvious industry is being devastated by Trump's tariff war. US hardwood mills are closing, possibly for good, after losing half of their sales to Russia and southeast Asia. Trump's ill-advised tariff war is hurting consumers, our corporations,and workers who need that paycheck to put food on the table.
so the USA can not produce lumber now, we '''need''' foreign lumber????
except for exotic lumbers, we should not be importing any basic building lumber
Didn't read the link, huh? It is about exporting lumber. The export market has been cut in half by the tariff war. Like soybeans. And corn. Mills HERE are closing. American jobs are being lost.
Good grief, if you can't be bothered to read the article at least read the posts you're responding to.
