Young people with money are far from common here. I see quite a few driving vehicles worth 10,000 dollars or less. If they are driving a 50K dollar truck it is because mom and dad paid for it or they are going the leasing route of 350 dollars per month for 36 months with maybe 1500 dollars down which is quite aways off from having 50K dollars invested.
Obviously, very few people with no connection to farming are going to buy a 70 year old tractor. At the same time there are quite a few people that had a father or grandfather in farming. Yes, they can do as they see fit and it should be obvious that I am NOT saying there "ought to be a law." I have actually talked to a few younger people who came from a farm background or live in a rural area by choice and I am passing along some comments made to me.
Yes, quite a few younger people would love to have a late 1960's or 1970's tractor but lack the money to spend 10, 15 thousand dollars or more on a tractor.
I don't doubt there are areas where what you have said holds true. But at the same time quite a few areas such as where I live are like "the land that time forgot" when it comes to the economy.
