anyone who stupidly thinks it is worse now than the eighties did not experience it in person... i DID,,,,, and farming now is VERY profitable compared to that time
You are spot on. Current situation is a walk in the park compared to what farming in the 1980s was like.
Anyone who thinks current is anywhere close to the 80's is either uniformed or an idiot. We actually put new parts on stuff now days. We bronzed, duck taped, patched, or just made do like it was back then.....for years.
And...a lot of the farms that I envied because they had things like...air-conditioning....aren't around today.
