Tractors and (upcoming) tariffs?

The grower that desires it is who pays for it, they pay into an insurance fund.

Federal government pays the largest portion

With a competent administration coming in soon that might just happen

From 2011 - 2016 70% of guns confiscated in Mexico during violent crimes were from the US.

This was the assessment in June 2019:
"It seems like this is an ever-evolving situation and ever-evolving list of asks from both sides," Allen said. "Mexicans are asking Americans to take some steps to stem the flow of weapons over the border -- an ask that's been made by multiple Mexican presidents but has never really come to pass. There's no easy solution, and certainly asking the U.S. to stem the flow of guns from the U.S. to Mexico would be a difficult thing to act on."

Don't hold your breath.

I guess all these gun laws a certain side prefers doesn't really prevent criminal activity

Toothless US gun laws have no bearing on Mexican drug cartels being better armed than Mexican law enforcement. Which is, per Mexican government an ongoing and unaddressed problem over several US and Mexican administrations, the problem with stemming the flow of drugs from Mexico to the US.
Tariff's won't fix this problem.

My point was the guns crossing into Mexico from the US are most likely illegal. A certain party thinks more laws will get illegal guns off the streets. You brought up the gun issue

No, the Mexican government brought up the gun issue in response to the tariffs threat. I just passed it along because it continues to be overlooked everywhere, including this thread by tariffs supporters who think they have miraculously found the simple answer to drugs & illegal immigration.

This thread is HIGHLY entertaining!
I very much enjoy the back and forth.

Bull crap, overlooked???? certain people and parties have been trying to restrict a RIGHT that is not restrictable for many decades just nibbling and chewing constantly.
Then noise is made about "compromise" compromise my a*s we have been compromising our rights since 1932 by an over bearing government which continues to get more over bearing every day.

I have to ask how the cartels are getting fully automatic firearms. These are not things that we just go and buy at our local gun stores.

Back to tariffs, politicians are far better at talking than doing - for which we should be thankful.
