I'll take my sprawling suburb with a big yard to grow ample food any day over a densely populated and carefully planned cityscape. With the advent of cheaper solar panels and electric vehicles, it's not a big issue.


Are you actually growing your own food though? Or is your yard a grass monoculture that serves more of a vanity project than anything useful?

And maybe you are, which, good on you! But I don't think most Americans are.


Yes! I love growing my own food. I have 1/4 acre with 10 fruit trees, 12 grape vines, and a 20×60' vegetable patch.


I don't even give a shit about the yard. Frankly it's a pain in the ass.

It's about getting away from "the wrong kind"[1] of people.

[1]calm down that's not who I'm talking about.
