If I had US75000 dollars in the early 1980's how much would it be worth today?
It would still be worth $75000. You aren't mentioning whether you invested it or anything, so I will assume you put it "in a piggy bank" (for example).
Tamara,
I have done a lot of searching in regargds to Pierce National Life, because I work at an un-associated agency called Pierce Agency, Inc. in Minnesota and we get several calls per week with people looking for a loved ones life insurance policy.
What I have found is that Pierce National Life was bought by John Alden/Fortis in 2002, and has been purchased again and now operates under Assurant Preneed.
Assurant Preneed, 10 Glenlake parkway #500, Atlanta, GA 30328-3473, Toll free 800-801-0800.

Before an insurance company can sell insurance in a certain state, it must register with the State Dept of Insurance. If the company is sold, then it must notify the Dept of who it was sold to. If it just closes down, its policies were likely sold to another company, the Dept will have to be notified of that as well.
Contact the CA Dept of Insurance and inquire there.

Why did family farmers face hard times in the 1980s?
ok,
answer: The farmers interest rates on bank loans increased. So, many farmers were not able to jmake enough money to pay their loans.
Additionally, the US government had spent the previous decade encouraging farmers to buy more and more land and plant as much of it to crops as they possibly could. This created a huge crop surplus that took quite a few years to get worked down, lowering crop prices and making it impossible for the farmers to turn enough profit to pay for all the land they had bought at "land boom" prices. As a result, many farm families had to declare bankruptcy and leave the land. This was also the reason Willie Nelson (a famous US country singer) began the benefit concert series titled "Farm Aid". It wasn't until the early 1990's that the markets for both the crops and the land began to turn around enough to make farming profitable again.
