    The fact you can't comprehend the post isn't a language barrier or even an education barrier. It's a sanity barrier. Of course the $2000 Betamax's were replaced by $50 VHS players and then expensive DVD players which also dropped to $50 or less.

    It's okay you can't see. I never expected you could. Not your fault.
    There are alread6y cheaper tractors on the market. Perople are already buying them.

    I don't believe you. You have already shown you know nothing about aerodynamics, flight rules, or the FAA's current position or rules.

    That's a mower. Yeah, it can connect up trailers, and even mount snow removal equipment, but it's basically a mower. A nice mower, though.

    Some tractors can attach center mower decks, but they also have loader buckets, backhoes, tiller and disking attachments, grading box attachments, grapple attachments (great for grabbing a hunk of trees like so much salad!), ground boring attachments (great for building pole barns or planting a power pole!), stump grinding attachments, and of course hog mowers that are good enough to eat small trees like so much thick grass. Oh...they do snow removal too.

    We don't get much snow around here, so my snow removal equipment for my tractor is rather minimal. I just use the bucket with skid plates attached. My tractor is a small one. It's very capable, and get into many areas that larger tractors can't get into. It's a 1 series John Deere. It's no 4 series beast like you see on large farms, but it does everything I need it to do. A field full of 8 foot high blackberries don't mean much to it. I can clear such a field pretty quickly.

    Today's plasma TV's are capable of some great picture quality.

    All of it...your mower, my tractor, your TV, and even the house you sit in while watching it, were built by people voluntarily doing it to try to make a profit.

    That's capitalism...the only economic system capable of creating wealth.

    farmers will be very anxious for real technological breakthroughs to lower costs

    this isn't it......yet anyway it has 10 hours of life between charges, when it is time to be on a tractor, the days are long as the job is compacted as much as possible into as few of days as possible

    imagine - you have a huge field, and you are waiting for as long as possible for the last bit of moisture to leave the plant. when it is time to harvest, you are working 18 hours easy.

    It's a garden tractor. It does what I bought it to do. I live in farmland so I know what a tractor is. 8-wheel 4X4's pull some massive plows.

    They quit making plasma TVs a few years ago, the last ZT-60 I saw available sold on Amazon for $9999.99 about 3 years ago.

    But yeah, everyone is in it to make a buck. When they aren't, quality goes to shit.

    Harvesting before it's time to harvest produces an inferior harvest. It doesn't matter what equipment is used to harvest it.

    Monarch does not make and as far as I can see has no planes to make a harvester.

    The Monarch tractor does not lower cost. They are five times as expensive as an equivalent diesel tractor. They require towing a cart of batteries to get their 10 hours in the field, limiting what it can tow. It's fully computerized with proprietary software, already a sore spot among farmers. The batteries must also be charged each day, which will require approx. 12 hours. A charging stations for a single set of batteries will require as much current as a welder. Gangs of batteries for multiple tractors is not practical. This limits the number of units you can practically field in a day to only a few.

    If you say so. The marketing guys at the company say so too.
    Around here, we call it a mower.

    It's not an 8 wheel 4x4, and there is no plow attachment for the machine (unless you fabricate one!).

    Despite this, the TFT and QLED screens are capable of great picture quality as well. They're cheaper too! High quality at a cheaper price...another benefit of capitalism.

    Bingo.

    The success metric for any company is profit. They don't get that profit unless they have satisfied customers. They can only get those satisfied customers by putting out a reasonable quality product or service that the customer is willing to buy.

    The success metric for a government is NOT profit. It is simply to justify it's existence. If it has to make up a 'crisis' to justify coming in to 'solve' it, that's what they will do. They will never actually solve it, however, since that would nullify their existence to come in and solve problems.

    Imagine a society where no one broke the law. Why would you need a police department? The only thing that justifies a police department is that people break the law. People breaking the law is the problem that justifies having police in the first place.

    Manufacturing a crisis or a problem to 'solve' isn't above any government. It justifies their expansion if they can convince people the 'crisis' or 'problem' is real.

    So you have propaganda.

    Since socialism is government manipulation or ownership of markets, they have to manufacture a 'crisis' or 'problem' is these markets to justify their interference in them. Since socialism is also theft, that interference takes on the form of dictatorships and oligarchies.

    Such as the EPA. An oligarchy.
    Such as the NEA. An oligarchy.
    Such as the CPSC. An oligarchy.

    I could go on, but I think you get the idea.
