They won’t be able to make the machines that the farmers use to farm their
crops. There would be no electricity generation or fuel supply, no
manufacturing of farmhouses, no laying of roads for the trucks to supply
feed and fertilizer and seed and take away produce. Nobody to pay the
farmers. Nobody to educate them on how to grow their crops.

The whole system collapses.

I have heard it said that, if the US President was elected by popular
vote, it’s likely a Republican would never occupy the White House again.

But then, that’s their own fault. Each time they lose an election, instead
of trying to fix it by coming up with policies that appeal to a broader
range of voters, currently their strategy seems to be to swing even
further to the extreme right.

So far it hasn't been working out that way.

This is pure idiocy, just like your IVF strawman to try to discredit
anyone who is against infanticide. City people don't have a monopoly on
he production of machines. In fact, most of those city people can barely
figure out how to insert a plug into its socket. You're suggesting that
all city people are engineers much in the same that your stupid allies
suggest that the rapists entering the West illegally are all engineers
and doctors. I always thought that the left had _some_ intelligence but
it is becoming increasingly clear that it is composed of nothing other
than stupid people. I'm now remembering why I put your name into my filter.

Let's hope it remains that way. I've been told that Texas would be a
utopia for me (by someone who used to live there). I wouldn't want it to
change if that is indeed the case.

You are so fucking ignorant it's pathetic. Do you really think they
manufacture tractors in New York City, Baltimore, or LA? Harvest the
lumber needed to build houses? Drill wells for oil and gas? Mine coal?

Back in the '80s I had an urge to move to Texas. I interviewed with MosTek
which was a going concern back then. On the final approach to the Dallas -
Fort Worth airport I looked around at the treeless plains and figured it
wasn't going to work.

Texas is like Oklahoma with a better PR team. The other problem I have is
damn near every square inch is private property. Even back east the
Adirondack Park was managed as a wilderness by the state and the Greens
and Whites were National Forests.

Texas has 4 national forests but they're all in east Texas and are pretty
flat. It's like hiking in the Ocala NF in Florida.

I did too! I remember the guy showing me around bragging about the grindset
hustle boy thing, where you work your ass off for long hours.

My father's comment was "That's where they killed Kennedy."

I decided to stay in grad school, but changed fields (physics to hearing
science).

If you have received a letter inviting you to speak at the dedication of a
new cat hospital, and you hate cats, your reply, declining the invitation,
does not necessarily have to cover the full range of your emotions. You must
make it clear that you will not attend, but you do not have to let fly at cats.
The writer of the letter asked a civil question; attack cats, then, only if
you can do so with good humor, good taste, and in such a way that your answer
will be courteous as well as responsive. Since you are out of sympathy with
cats, you may quite properly give this as a reason for not appearing at the
dedication ceremonies of a cat hospital. But bear in mind that your opinion
of cats was not sought, only your services as a speaker. Try to keep things
straight.

Machines, including farming machines, are complicated things. Most of the
modern ones need to be built with the help of other machines. There need
to be support machines for transport (of raw materials, workers, finished
products), fuelling, communications etc. And for keeping track of orders
and shipments and payments and all that. This is why you don’t see big
factories out in the middle of corn fields.

Anyway, getting back to the point: why should the value of your vote
depend on where you live? If you believe that all your citizens are
“created equal”, then shouldn’t their votes count equally, too?

Whether it’s tractors, parts to make the tractors, parts to make the
factories that make the tractors, schools to train the designers and
makers of the tractor parts, schools to train the farmers, schools to
train the designers and builders of the factories, schools to train the
trainers ... you don’t see these operating in the middle of some corn
field, do you?

> Harvest the lumber needed to build houses?

Harvesting the raw lumber is the only part that happens in the forest. All
the rest of what they call the “value-add” happens in an urban factory
somewhere. Typically multiple stages, in multiple factories.

> Drill wells for oil and gas? Mine coal?

Same thing. Once the raw material is obtained in situ, all the rest
requires the full complexity of urban infrastructure to deal with.

"all mean are created equal" is from the US Declaration of Independence.

I work very hard, sir, maybe not for money, but that's not my role,
and it's not for you to judge.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent. States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.

The most impressive thing in the area was Billy Bob's.

No Show Jones didn't. In later years I got to see more of Texas but it's
not a place I need to go back to.

https://ballotpedia.org/Federal_land_ownership_by_state

For my purposes, yes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_forest_(United_States)

"In the United States, national forest is a classification of protected
and managed federal lands that are largely forest and woodland areas. They
are owned collectively by the American people through the federal
government and managed by the United States Forest Service, a division of
the United States Department of Agriculture. "

That means:

https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/lolo/recreation/recarea/?
recid=10273&actid=93

https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/lolo/recarea/?recid=10277

https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/lolo/recarea/?recid=10275

Those are developed recreation areas that are about a 15 minute drive
away. There are many more thousands of acres managed by the FS where you
can hike, camp, hunt, and fish.

While the forest management has been controversial it has prevented the
clear cutting that happened on privately owned land. In the 19th century
the government gave the railroads sections (640 acres, 1 mile square) of
land supposedly to fill their needs for timber. Those ultimately wound up
in the hands of timber companies who cut everything in sight. They're now
in the real estate business since a forest can take up to 100 years to
regrow in a semi-arid climate and they're not patient.

The other organization is the BLM.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bureau_of_Land_Management

They're more about prairies so don't manage too much land in this area.
Again you can hike, camp, and hunt. If you camp you may wake up surrounded
by cows since it's multi-use and the BLM has grazing leases.

By contrast, less than 2% od the land in Texas is held by Federal
agencies. Step off the road to take a walk and you'll be looking at a No
Trespassing sign. If you want to hunt, you can pay a hefty fee to a
provate landowner.

It would be so for someonw who loves country music.

"Engineers" are simple creatures. They're not simple because they're
"engineers". They're "engineers" because they're simple.

If you like heat and humidity you would love Texas. I lived there. I'm not

Because the U.S. is a collection of sovereign states, not a single entity.
When the states entered the Union they did so with certain checks and
balances. Power in the United States is supposed to be bottom up. Local
government is supposed to have the most influence on its citizens, then
county, then the state, then the Federal government. The Federal government
has used extortion and tax money (they shouldn't have gotten) to attain
power that was never granted to them in the Constitution.

So the answer is, each state is its own sovereign entity and the checks and
balances in our country where designed so that no big state could run
roughshod over the smaller states.

Got it now?
