    Interesting and understandable how rural areas become vacated as people gravitate to a 'better life'(!) elsewhere. This has happened historically world wide.
    What would be even more interesting is to see gender role reversal ie a woman train driver assisting "grandpas" in deserted villages.
    Traditional ways are seen as the norm and I know of female trades and service women who have to fight twice as hard in a patriarchal world.

      @F22onblockland 3 роки тому +5

      banning drugs doesn't work because it doesn't get to the heart of the issue of why people use drugs. It's a legal fix for what is a economic and psychological issue.
      Attempts at prohibition for popular drugs throughout history have shown to not work time and again, instead it just forces the people who make and transport it to take extralegal means since there is still guaranteed and steady profit from the psychologically broken people at the end of a supply chain who may also become physically dependent depending on the substance.
