As you can all guess I'm from New York . We arexthe highest taxed state n the nation. I believe most of our politicians are corrupt . I moved to Maryland for 6 years , ended up working in large cities . Luckily farm was still here when I got back and I'm working most of it . Hay paid the taxes last couple years. The minimum wage of 15 bucks is I think in new York city not the entire state , probably can't rent a garbage can on that . I guess another way to look at it is when a ceo of a company saves 10 million a year by moving a factory overseas , then gets a 20 million dollar raise . Research some the salaries of some people . Sports stars , news anchors , people that are famous for being famous . Are they worth that.I have 2 kids in college , my girl is almost done , worked the whole time . Makes the same as I did in my first job after we sold the cows , when my rent was 200 bucks , gas wasn't a dollar , my car cost 500 bucks . Not saying everyone should make the same , but look at it from all angles. Oh and we sold our cows in 1986.
As far as job market it can be tough . I have worked in the construction industry for 30 years , it is slow right now . I've had a good career , now a superintendent . The work ethic I learned on the farm was a huge factor , know guys that "rode along " , they ain't working . I guess I'm rambling but I will say that this 165 acres is my home and I guess it probably always will be.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
