The president also suggested he still plans to impose new tariffs on China but did not give any details.

Summary

Trump announced that 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico will take effect on February 1, though a decision on including oil remains pending.

He justified the move by citing undocumented migration, fentanyl trafficking, and trade deficits.

Trump also hinted at new tariffs on China.

Canada and Mexico plan retaliatory measures while seeking to address U.S. concerns.

If oil imports are taxed, it could raise costs for businesses and consumers, potentially contradicting Trump’s pledge to reduce living expenses.

    Has the second best CoL/MedianSalary ratio in the US. Ironically, the only state I saw that was consistently better was Michigan.

    Plus we have Hocking Hills, which pretty consistently showed up on r/earthporn. If you want flat, we’ve got flat. If you want hills and mountains, we’ve got Appalachia.

      Yeah but any time the state does anything good by ballot initiative the state government does something regressive out of spite

      Not to mention roller coasters. Two of the largest thrill parks in the US.
