I know this will be off topic kinda but I feel its something that should be brought up from time to time. Its the topic of the country vanishing. you know what I mean too. Overpopulation and too many city people moving out and ruining productive land. I don't have anything against city people personally but what they are doing to lifestyles and heritage and futures for those who have lived in the country and want to farm or raise livestock. If thats not bad enough, they bring the crime and misery with them. The ones I hate the most are those that move out and by 10 acres and then want to have an ag tax exemption on it and then they think they know more than the people(farmers) who have been doing the business all their lives. Dealing with a few of that type right now myself and thats probably what really sparked this post. Please don't anyone think this is meant to say anything about anyone in particular, it has nothing too do with individuals, its what they are doing to our rural america. I know this will probably get many responses that will basically tell me to shut up but thats ok, most of those will probably come from those who are doing just what I'm describing here.
What alot of these people who are doing this do not realise is is that agriculture is what keeps america alive, its not computors, its not, microchips, we can't eat those and live. Without agriculture we would be hurting very much and I know that there is alot of acreage alloted to agriculture but the rate of shrink is increasing. just needing to vent here and I hope no one takes this post as a personal attack of anykind, its not meant that way at all. Just something to make some aware of whats going on that may not be apparent to everyone.

He had over a period of months spent a fair amount of his hard earned cash on replacement parts for the old "trembler" ignition. Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce
