Tariffs can help protect American businesses by encouraging local production and preserving jobs. However, they also raise the cost of imported goods, which forces stores to pass on these expenses to consumers. We might face higher bills, fewer jobs, and slower economic growth.

Retirement income hasn't risen to meet rising prices. How are we supposed to compensate?

What do we really need from Mexico? Definitely less illegal immigrants, and that is being worked on. Their shoddy autos? Make them at plants in the US. And Canada, and their petroleum? That's why its drill, baby drill...which should have been U.S. policy for past 50 years.

We had the Biden tariff for 4 years. Can't get worse than his incompetence.

No effect of the United States

If anything occurs, the effect will be temporary until the markets adjust. Funny KMIZ didn't have similar pols under Biden's double-digit inflation. Where was the media's outrage then? I know, orange man bad.

We are only in this mess because of former presidents from BOTH parties. Sometimes healing is painful.

Better for our air quality, benefits Oregon agriculture vs. Chinese corporations, and they are the real thing.

Almost no Christmas trees are pine trees.

Artificial because it's easier, and definitely cheaper. We have had the same articial tree for about 10 years. I refuse to pay $100 or more for a real Christmas Tree. We stopped buying real Christmas trees when it cost us $50 for one. Now the Christmas trees are $100 or more.

Ik its a tradition but if u cant keep ir tree healthy and alive outside dont cut it down jus to have it up for a month

Joyce Scarborough

I really would love a real tree, but have learned to love artifical trees to keep alergies under control.

For most of my life, I was an avid real tree person; however, in my later years, I find my artificial tree very easy to deal with, so I am a convert.

Real ones dry out if you don't water them often and the needles come off

There's something magical about a sprinkling of snow on Christmas 😊 And heavy enough snow means snow angels, snowmen, and snowball fights! ❄️

Belinda Kitchen

The older I get - since I don't ski any more - snow just represents work for me, so if I never saw another snow flake, it would be just fine with me!
