      I’m hoping that this turns into an opportunity for the vegetarian food companies to (a) get more market share and (b) lower prices (ha!). But with meat skyrocketing and soybeans over produced, this seems like a great opportunity for them.

        Not sure I understand this. We make fuck tons of soybeans here, and we don’t consume that much I don’t believe. So we should have to much, unless we somehow can’t export our corn as well, and then make ethenol for our gasoline out of it. But I highly doubt that would happen do to changes/efficiency

    Not just tariffs, but also terrorizing and deporting the workers that the industry exploits. Even for items not actually impacted there’s also the corporate greed seeing a convenient excuse for higher profits. Just an absolute disaster all around.
