JD, How long have you lived under that big rock of yours? I was born on a farm in Grundy Co, but my career has been in sales with a major seed company.
My wife worked for a firm doing taxes for farmers for about 15 yrs...she still does our taxes. She always commented about farmers paying a low rate of taxes, but she said it was always legal. Even with real estate taxes their total rates were below what we paid.
My wife and I have always been prudent with our money (not tight)....mostly used cars until the last 20 years. No credit card debts whatsoever; not one dollar. All bills paid promptly. House paid for years ago. We have virtually no major deductions, except for what we donate to charity.
