I'm currently struggling (VERY much) with the possibility of moving away from one of the few (potentially) viable rural communities left in Amerika. My decision has everything to do with my recent divorce and my overwhelming need to be involved in whatever is coming down the "crash-pipe" in the near future. While I believe there is an important place for sustainable rural communities, I can't seem to find any satisfaction holing-up in "Green Acres" for very long at all. Some days I feel stupid for wanting to leave behind such a good thing, but I am a terminally restless soul. So be it.

We are not living in the 1930's, when there still were substantial numbers of farmers on the land. The ruralities are now wide open spaces for all kinds of anti-social behavior, and isolation is not your friend in that scenario.

This comment gives me an excuse to recommend a great book I've been reading: Shadows of War, by Carolyn Norstrom. You can download it in electronic form for $15.00. It is also available in paper/print form from the University of California Press. Nordstrom answers in great detail the question De has asked. A simplification of that answer would be "not all that much" “and the distinction between the US Gummint and an organized meth ring is …?”
