Right - back in 1947 International Harvester released the Farmall Cub https://imgur.com/a/fqq2kpM and made them easy for the owner to repair and maintain. I have one of those and really support the right to repair movement. If you buy it, it's yours to use and repair. I hate what John Deere has done. It's right up there with terminator seeds that the farmer must buy every year.

I have watched several videos about how the tractor companies(john deere, i think) requires you to load your tractor up on a semi-truck and cart it to another city to get it repaired.

it is all about puttiing the farmer out of business.

and that is nothing compared to what i call the "seed mafia"... omg.. they basically force you to buy their seeds... and if you dont buy their seeds, they will wipe your ass in court until you are out of business. they will sue you because some of their patented seeds blew onto your property.

fkn gangsters... and do you know who pays for this bullsht? i do, when i go to buy food at the grocery store.
