A lot of our forefathers lived in houses about this size out in the heartland of America.

Sometimes with a lot more than one child.

Yep and I sure as hell wouldn’t want to go back to that time in history.

Back then, many people starved to death or froze to death, but not by choice. People back then did the best they could. This current family is choosing to not let their child have any privacy.

And this one has insulation and a non-dirt floor. Child abuse? Wow we are so spoiled. People in the deep south still live in tar paper shacks. This thing is a mansion.

True, that. Back in the day, I was part of a branding crew for a ranch east of the mountains here in MT... Over a couple seasons, I got to be pretty good friends with the rancher's sons, who took me to view their family homestead. The home of their great-great grandfather, I believe, where he raised up 11 kids, without running water, or indoor plumbing - and all that in a sod/cabin about the size of my living room.

Sometimes our wealth dispossesses us of far richer things.

But that being said, I don't know how that thing pictured above cost $30k... I built a 12x18 shed w/ floor for less than 3k four years ago.
