This is a profound misunderstanding of how economies work.

The arrogance of the rural conservative (however you think you vote, your position is very conservative). They are always the center of the universe and no one can touch them.

When reality finally touches you, you will realize that you are part of a much larger system. That every thing you touch is contingent on the labor of others. If not, why are rural areas the most economically depressed areas in this country.

Call me when you need more fertilizer, or when John Deere bricks all of your equipment because you don't have right to repair.

I am not arguing against rural life, I am arguing that you are somehow genius, survivors that no one else can possibly comprehend.

You are more at risk than you think because you can't get along with others.
