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.

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