I always archive the replies he gets from the left. Going to create a board game one day called Butt-Hurt. The object of the game is to try to destroy your neighbors by either filling their squares they land on with either feces or illegal alien squatters.

Banks would refuse to give them loans unless they purchased really expensive new equipment, then when they would fall behind on payments the banks would foreclose on the loans. I remember reading about one farmer who lost his family farm and went in to plead with the bank beforehand and they basically told him to fuck off. He came back and shot the bank manager to death.

Apparently it's still going on.

I'll allow it since I like him, but Combines are far more useful for harvesting than tractors.

We already know our benefactors are good at harvesting.

Ha-ha! "Our benefactors..." Right out of Half-Life 2 with City 17, which this is gonna turn into if we don't win. Frankly I think we're completely fucked. Those of you that have played the game know what I'm talking about.

I guess technically it's a tractor till you add the grain head

Depends on what you're harvesting. Tractors are mighty handy when harvesting potatoes or beets.

Right. I worked in a shop that made pea combines. Very specialized equipment but even that I think was powered by the PTO as it was pulled by a tractor.

Oh come on. You don't get symbolism? Using the word "combine" would confuse a lot of non-farm people. Tractors is a word they all get. So give it a rest. This isn't about being literal

In my warped field,
I use my tractor beam,
To fill in the worm holes.
