| I printed a copy of both of those. I will read both. I always remember reading Neil Harls stuff in the 80s when TSHF and thinking all he was really doing was telling us we were in a hole but not how to get out. Now is the time to read this stuff before we get in another hole. As the 80s progressed I heard several stories of how relatives and neighbors got into trouble in the 20-30s. But nobody talked about it till the 80s happened. One of the most important things to glean though is when it the first time. It was the 20s not the 30s. The 20s took out the guys that paid too much for land. When the Depression hit every body in the country was hurting but there weren't as near as many farms lost. My home place was lost in in the early 20s . The owner didn't buy it back until the 50s. I was young when the 80s hit. It wasn't fun and I don't want to do it again. But I think a young persons standard for risk should be much higher than an old guy that has something to protect.
