What’s ironic is that it’s the liberal-eating-local-buy-local-equality-socialist types that are are subsidizing their ability to live in that small rural town at all.

County State Aid roads, clean water infrastructure, education, business development grants, farm grants… All of that is paid for by big city taxes, which typically (not always… Looking at you Ft. Worth…) lean liberal. In my state one rural community received tax funding at a rate of 480% compare to what they paid in, where as the city center reviebes about 60% of the taxes they pay.

Farm-to-table? Anti-trust regulations? Farm subsidies? The USDA rural development? All paid for in large part by taxes, most of which come from city centers.

And yet exactly what you said - they want liberal big cities gone. They see them as a plight upon the land.

It’s crazy.

Oh! Thank you for this!

No love for librera yet. That scroll mode for PDFs saves my life for technical documentation.

Yeah, oldest electronic, or oldest thing? I have a set of fireproof bankers drawers with a functioning rotary lock from like 1917. Oldest electronic… Do speakers count? I have a set of Acoustalinear speakers hooked up to a sound system… Or my grandpa’s old neon sign from the 1950s (although it has some newer parts… Ballasts and what not do not last for ever). I also have some old electric tube transistors in an old radio I restored that have “made in West Germany” stamped on them… But those might be from the 90s… I am not sure.
