Yup,it is. I sure pray that we never see interest rates like those from the 70s and early 80s again. I bought a new tractor in February of 1981 and paid 17.5% interest. I know guys who borrowed operating money that spring for 21%. We CAN'T go back to that,but it's where we're headed. All courtesy of the US Government. We had those rates because Nixon,Ford and Carter printed so much money to finance their deficits.

There's NOTHING folks like you and I are going to do about it my friend.
