I keep forgetting you cult members can't understand anything more complex than a bumper sticker. I’ll dumb it down for you: GDP = Gross Domestic Product, the amount of goods and services produced in a country in one year. Inflation = General progressive price increases of goods and services. Feel free to ask me anything else about economics that you don’t understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calfoxwc Posted February 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 A lot of folks don't understand. The equipment, and maintenance, high cost of seed and fertilizer and diesel fuel, ... a new combine can easily run up about a half million bucks. We used to do a 6 acre field, and the seed for soybeans was a thousand bucks. Used to cut and bail hay.... filling up the barrel pump cost about 330 bucks, and that was about three years ago. It was fun, but the costs and profit dwindles for small farmers. The big farmers farm their own huge fields, other's fields, to make more of an overall profit. Let weather hit hard, and a lot of crop can get lost. Gas goes up, everybody's costs go up - the corn/soybean trucker to the mill, the farmer, the delivery of fertilizer/seed, ....the delivery out to food manufactures, the delivery of said food products to stores...... and trying to go organic - far more expense. It wouldn't take much of the apple cart to tip over to be a huge disaster. Which, would be just another failure of this corrupt bunch of hacks running out gov now in the wh. I still go out and stock up a little. Here is a GREAT book you can order on Amazon. It's just excellent, about 18 bucks.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
