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

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.

Solar desalination could be a cheap means of creating more water, or have it powered by Thorium reactors.

Hell no, keep these areas quarantined as the sickness they so clearly are.

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.
