Yes, the metro areas in the Plains are certainly growing in population. For instance, Wichita has grown by 12% since the year 2000. The good of is that more and more people are abandoning most of the small towns and moving to the metro areas, and so they will have better access to medical and dental care, along with more opportunities for employment and shopping.
Yes shop is all that matters. Leave folks alone. They have lived for many a year and will continue on. Liberals telling folks where and how to live will not change that. Most do brush their teetch and go shop..........lol
I used to think it's Agenda 21 at work, but come on. What sizable service industry company is going to relocate to a small town of 4000 people versus the nearby city of 100,000? Really, dude? You're not from a small town, are you? I can tell you that just about EVERYBODY in my small town wanted to move to the big city, and many did, including myself. There aren't many jobs where I used to live, and it was a damn depressing place to live, end of story. That has NOTHING to do with Agenda 21. You're such a suburbanite
That article is a load of crap. Small towns on the not-so-great plains are dying, the landscape is about as dull as you can get, the weather sucks, and then you have all the wack job conservatives. No thanks!

Agenda 21 is a slow crawl.
Your place was depressing? Then move which it appears you did. Don't tell others what to do.

Yeah lets all pack into big city and deal with the wack job liberals.........so it goes. Leave others alone. Do what you want don't tell others how to live. Why is that so hard to figure out? You will die first.
Desal takes huge ammounts of energy. Who's going to pay that much for water? Some places that are heavily populated today were never meant to support that many people. Those places will be depopulated naturaly as people move to other areas. Las Vegas, Phoenix and parts of SoCal come to mind.
Solar desalination could be a cheap means of creating more water, or have it powered by Thorium reactors.

Did I tell anyone else what to do? No, I didn't. Stop your suburban paranoia already, geez. I only said that Agenda 21 is not the only reason why the rural Plains are being depopulated everybody is "self-deporting" from their towns.
By the way, rural life is not as glamorous as you think it is. I know Fox News, Rush, and company love to prop up the rural American as some kind of cultural hero, something to aspire to, but drug use and alcoholism is rampant in rural America, and not just weed, I'm talking crystal meth. Maybe the Right should stop idealizing what rural life is like, cause it's not as cracked up as you, and every other neo-Confederate suburbanite and city boy on this forum, think it is

Low crime
Low taxes
Low nanny statism
More freedom
More privacy
Tell you what lefttist stay in the city, we keep the suburbs and country.
Also Agenda 21 and its affects on this nation are being to became very self evident.

It's not the dreaded Conservatives shooting it up in Denver. You must live a sheltered life, probably E Aurora in a pasty white hood with more Republicans than you even know about. Que the two mass shootings. Gangs have killed 500% + more people in Denver than the three kooks.
