Ranchers, farmers brace for 'death tax' impact

poor farmers.

Farmers who dont grow anything, but just deal with cattle making themselves a killing while the average person struggles to buy beef in the store.

Farmers who sit on their land their whole life and never have to get out and get a real job in the real world while their property is used for nothing when they could be growing crops and hiring hundreds of people to harvest those crops by hand.

Poor Farmers who act as if they are more entitled or better than everyone else just because they own huge chunks of land.

Pity of the Farmers.

EXACTLY
people have no idea how hard a small farmer works
and how he lives
they aren't out during hurricanes, blizzards and below zero temps taking care of animals
and they aren't sweating and dehydrating working the summer
and can't afford to pay for help
either you do it yourself or it doesn't get done
very few have any clue just what that means for a farmer
i don't give a rat's ass about big ag
it's the small farmers that need to not be taxed
they're taxed on the "value" of their land and equipment
not what they actually make off it which isn't much at all
so farmers end up selling their land
but, hey, at least there will be room for more subdivisions for yuppies and walmarts for the ignorant masses

An idea, would be to sell land to your children before you die for $1, with stipulations that they can not sell and can use your/their land after you die.

Do you know why most farms are now owned by large corporations? It's because the farms don't make enough money to make land payments and still put food on the table. Mom and Pop farms are going away fast. If the farmers have to pay ridiculous taxes to inherit what they have worked for all their lives, the money comes from the bank. The bank will end up owning the farm. One more farm bites the dust. Farmers are far from rich. Most barely make ends meet in a bad year. A lot of farms depend on loans to survive a bad year. In a good year that same farmer can make enough money to pay everything off, and maybe buy a new truck, or a tractor. Does that make him rich, no it just means he can keep working his ass off for another year. Farmers work hard, and put in 60 to 80 hours a week. At harvest time or when something goes wrong, the hours can go up dramatically. Sometimes they have to eat on the go, and survive on a little nap when they can take a minute off. I don't know where these assholes get the idea that farmers are rich. If any of them want to try it, most farms are looking for help. The hours are long and the pay is not too good, but at the end of the day, you feel like you have accomplished something. With the average farmer being somewhere between 65 and eighty, this could work into a chance to inherit some land. If you are man enough, and aren't afraid of hard work, go for it. Just don't try to tell the farmer that he's rich. Even though his net worth looks really good, all his money is tied up in land and equipment.

The death tax makes it very hard to keep the farm in the family. It's just a gift to large corporate farms. That who ends up with all the land after it is repossessed.

You're right, they think that just because the land is "valuable", we make a killing. In a really good year, if we double crop, we can make $50,000, most years $35-40, some years a lot less.

sounds like the farm is going away when debt collectors come calling )


if farmers were collectively not such a bunch of douhes they would figure out workarounds for this. however i will refrain from giving them any ideas ) to stupid to hold onto your shit , then you don't deserve it
any business dependent on credit to run deserves to fail

for your information, sir bastard, I never said i was entitled to it, I simply said they wouldnt even let you step foot on the property without shooting you. If they had a pond for instance they most likely wouldnt even let you fish in it, or wildflowers growing along their property, they wouldnt let you pick one for your wife. Greedy bastards. and Im actually in my Living room on my computer in my house, so....

Go Fuck yourself buddy

22,000 Acre ranch? And I'm supposed to feel sorry for him that he has to pay taxes like everybody else?

Another rich guy whining for a tax break.

The Death Tax is a communist idea! Realize the money taxed in a death tax has already been taxed many times.
Why can't you extend your well being to your heirs?

Dont waste your time, this place, and other sites are becoming so infested with new age communists that are on the Govt. dole its becoming impossible to escape them without going to Stormfront or other extremist sites.Im cut my visits here down and will not renew a membership,not because of being cheap, but Im getting less and less out of this site. Trinity needs to do a purge, and a serious one, not a blanket IP ban either and kick these Marxist city rats back into hell where they belong.

You are an asshole, and I hope that you reap what you sow.
