Re: Location Location Location quote:
Point being.... everyone has choices in life. Those choices generally mean you are sacrificing X for Y. Rural people make the choice to live the life of isolation and the lack of convenience that comes with it. Urban people have made the choice to live the life of convenience over isolation.
Golly, I shor do miss all them thar big city "conveniences", like crushing taxes to pay for the "conveniences", a staggering cost of living, concrete and glass instead of trees, 24/7 traffic noise, polluted air, littered streets, living in fear of crime, sidewalks full of lonely, desperate people and wasted dregs of humanity ... oh yeah, us rural folks shor is deprived.
quote:
I personally have not seen a single innovation in "farming" that has done anything beneficial to society ...
How about feeding much of the world? How about going into your local supermarket and seeing more food on the shelves than is available in some countries?
quote:
...beyond raise the prices...
The prices would be considerably lower if we weren't wasting millions of acres of farmland growing crops for that environmentally disastrous "clean" fuel, ethanol, because ecowackos don't like oil, instead of using the acreage for food and feed for livestock. Then again, most city folk believe that food comes from boxes and bottles and jars.
quote:
...and introduce chemicals to our land and bodies that do more harm than good.
You are evidently unaware that the "chemicals" that plants use to grow are the same whether they come from fertilizer or from cow dung. One of the biggest ripoffs for the gullible is "organic" food.
Back on topic, the arrogance of "urban" dwellers re broadband has ceased to be merely annoying and has become thoroughly tedious. You're perfectly willing to enjoy the "convenience" of relying on rural America for your sustenance rather than raising or growing your own, but let us hicks and rednecks know our place and be silent. How dare we ask for a service that will benefit all of America! Are we unaware that if we want broadband, the answer is to move to an urban shithole and live like rats in a cage?
