people here are judged by their actions, not just the words.My trip to Alaska exposed how jaded and ruined I am from living in a big city: We were loitering around North Pole, looking for moose, and saw kids out playing, without an adult nearby. I was fearful for them. I wanted to tell them "Go home, it's not safe!", but it was safe, and I am retarded sometimes.
I wanted to ask the kids if there were any moose nearby, but did not, because I am a man and it is not appropriate for a strange man to approach children. I sent the wife instead.
I hate the society and culture that caused me to think that. I want a reset button for America, to make our values more "country", and less "city". More Alaska, less Detroit.
Maybe in another 30 years Alaska will have huge heated domes, or giant mirrors in space, or everyone will have their private nuclear reactor and a vehicle that works reliably and cheaply when its -40F.
But its the hardships that temper people, an easy soft padded nanny state society creates a weak society is what I think.Give everyone a free meal and a token job or just a check and you strip away the soul.
I wish more people truly were able to experience hardships. Just so they know what to fear.
