didn't we ALL learn in Kindergarten that calling people names was unproductive? I think both of your sides are guilty of this.... try using plain facts without any name-calling and see how productive of a conversation you can have... both sides simply saying the other is name-calling seems...

but what is being said in the news seems to say 28% of pop, not reg voters.... but I did not conduct the polls and you did not post.

(I think your data actually speaks against your point.) Only about 30% of the registered voters actually voted for the current administration (yes, 49.5% of cast votes -and the winning side but it was won without a majority) - and only about half of our population is registered to vote...

...or fourth.... or fifth....

yeah, no argument there... Tariffs are bad for free trade - how much dairy actually goes back and forth? how much would go both directions if no tariffs existed? and this is "because neither side sells beyond the quot(a)".... the Tariffs are why the trade is functionally restricted to the quota...

@ Gene@mpls: Geneva says she wants to answer - which specifics of her babble would you like to see references from?

Yes, please, and one that cites sources and preferably peer reviewed.... I would like to see your answer to Gene@mpls...

I did not say peer reviewed from a university.... from anyone who can reasonable be trusted in the field they are showing... and with evidence open enough to pass the 'silly test' btw, you replied to both of us without actually answering or providing sources... I too am very interested in...

Yes, please, and one that cites sources and preferably peer reviewed....

you just add to my point that it is a semantic issue -- stepped tariffs that are in a trade situation below the threshold of the steps is still called a "tariff" by many people. However, it seems by your statement of "...all dairy the USA currently sends to Canada is tariff free." you are of...

semantics are the devil in mix aren't they? the agreement between the USA and Canada does provide for dairy tariffs up to and I believe in some situations exceeding 300% -- HOWEVER, the tariffs are ramped up based on total volume of product being sold from USA to Canada. Currently (and I...

Canada has had tariffs on U.S.A.'s Dairy for years, depending on the product they vary, but generally are between 200% and 300%... what percentage of the Canadian dairy market do you suppose comes from the U.S.A.? likewise, what percentage of the U.S.A.'s dairy is sold to Canada (Hint, very...

I have never had anything bad to say about a Heidelberg either - I had a TOK at the house for many years.... But when I ran them for BYU-H there really was no service techs local, when we needed one it was a minimum of $6k just to open a ticket and get the tech there. And we really tried to...

This really really depends on your local market and local talent... unless you are going to be flying in talent from elsewhere, ask around see who has had good service. In the Offset world there were regions that swore by A.B. Dicks, others by Heidelberg, others Chiefs (for small...

... for a similar effect in the offset printing world, the use of spot-varnish is used. If the whole thing needs to be protected, spot the matte everywhere not holographic, and then spot gloss over the holo. If I was setting this up for wide format, I may try to use a gloss lam over the holo...
