Kornfused: I think you are confused about how capitalism works. What hay brought last year has ZERO meaning as to what it is worth this year. It is supply and demand. It will balance the market out over a period of time. When things are in short supply the value goes up and then more people will provide it in the future. Then the cost will come down.
Every single time some other approach has been tried it fails. Th Quakers tried socialism at the Plymouth Colony. They all about starved to death. The better growers had zero incentive to grow more because they got the same as the guys that did a poor job. Soon everyone was doing a poor job. It was only when they changed the way things where split up did they have the abundance to have the first Thanksgiving meal.
The long and short of it is Dave wants everyone to sell anything he is interested in at cost or below cost forever. Plus free delivery and installation. Life time warranty too. He does not believe the market should ever change one bit unless it is in his favor.
Dave's attitude is very common among horse people. They all have a expensive hobby. Then they want me to help subsidize them because they don't want to spend more than they did before.

At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows!
