Great, I'm not looking to debate it either. But basicly the limitations of use for the zoned EFU land. In oregon, where i am, at the state level at least, many limitations have been imposed upon our usage of the land without compensation or alternatives. The fb was either in support of certain restrictions or could not comment on their complete silence and lack of involvement on the others.
Just a quick example, and I'm not going into fine details, you can do that if you wish, as all info is publicly available. Say I own 200 acres of efu land. I have 3 kids. At the time I purchased the land, I could built 3 more houses on it for my kids to live in and raise their family. Now, I cannot built anything on my property unless I can prove over $80.000 gross income for 2 of 3 years per tax lot. I have to prove it, not just speculate it can be done. 200acres divided by 3 lots=66.6 acres. Non irrigated. Show me how to do this. This is a "hypothetical"?? situation mind you. Its close to one we have, but not excactly.
I was not compensted for these restrictions nor was I allowed a "grandfother in" clause. No alternatives have been issued. Where was the fb when all this took place?? In support of the new restrictions! Why?? Because other landuse committees have made trades will the fb for their support in other issues.
Again, not going to get into a P*****G match over it, just one the many issues the fb has sold us down the drain on and today those sell outs cost us too much money and freedoms. I will admitt that in the past there has been some incredible advancments that would not otherwise be possible without the fb. But that was when they could stand on thier own feet in the lobby. Those days are unfortuanatly gone.

Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
