George, finally we agree and I think we may have more in common than you think. First, the farm sales I am talking about are in Wi. Il. Ia. Ne. Ks.Mo. vs. what you may be seeing. Also, I can tell the differance between someone buying an older tractor to supplement his farming vs. paying $3,100 for an Allis Chalmers G unrestored with special cultivators to "fill out his collection". Also, I refuse to shop a WalMart nor will I support any family member spending money there.

I am very consistent. I will pay more for my food in order to have food choices and I will go to hardware store vs. Walmart and maybe pay more because I do support the small guy. What I do not support is the government making the choice for me by taking my money thru taxes to prop up already wealthy farmers or other businesses.

And, yes, I must agree, I have a better truck than you. I finally had to take my old faithful '78 Chev 3/4 4WD to the scrap yard with a tear in my eye. There was just no body left. What a great workhorse. I replaced it with an '87 that is not quite as badly rusted.

And yes, the guy with the fancy truck is 3rd generation farmer who is firm in his belief that my tax money should continue to support his "right to farm" like his daddy and grandfather did.
