How do you arbitrarily set a price for support. Yes, the government has done it for grain but yet is not adjusted annually for cost of production variations. I think we live in the wrong time period of history to do anything about the big corporations. Had Wal Mart gotten to the point where it is today on Teddy Roosevelt's watch it might have gotten broken up to a lot of people's satisfaction. But even Teddy was not perfect in addressing the excesses of big business. I think the best you can do sometimes is keep the ethical issues under control. But a lot of time that means policing yourself and some people are tempted to have more than they are entitled to under the law (think tax evasion). Some people scoff at that but you do not realize how that may affect an honest person to compete in an open market. How would you feel as a competing farmer if your neighbor is not paying his fair share of taxes and on top of that is looking to buy your other neighbor out with that money plus pay the neighbor partly under the table to boot. Would it not look suspicious if your selling neighbor took considerably less than you offered and yet had no personal issues not to sell to you.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
