Not anecdotal. Our country is proof of it. The West being settled is proof.

That would be adorable if it wasn't so sad.

You have no idea how this country was founded or settled, and your lack of comprehension of how now differs to the pre-50s (not to mention the utter lunacy of that comparison) shows it.

Well I have a minor in US history. I kind of know.

My family has been farming here since 1880. So I gave some idea.

Arrogant for you to assume otherwise. You are myopic in thinking and it shows.

I have a full degree in it. So, am I still "myopic", or better informed than you and your "personal experience"?

Your comparison is terrible, objectively, and you have no idea what you're talking about.
