BShauler - 9/4/2023 15:01 I don't think most farmers work 32 hours a week. And they are making more than the union workers.


There are some, but they are probably standing on the shoulders of somebody who was working 92 hours a week 90 years ago...

There's some fuzzy math with self-employment, too.   If I have to go to town to get a set of tractor batteries, but while I'm there I also go to the grocery store that's a block away from the parts store to get stuff for dinner tonight, and stop at the Dairy Bar for a milkshake, and get something to fix a shower curtain to maintain happy wife/happy life, and get a new collar for the puppy that outgrew his first one, how much of that is really for the farm?   But it would be pretty stupid to drive 20 extra miles instead of doing it all at once.
