    The cities are the place to live.
    They've got everything.
    You don't even have to use your car unless you're leaving the city.

    We have live theater, major league sports, universities, hospitals, great restaurants, exquisite shopping, and lively night clubs that you don't have to drive to and can thus drink as much as you want.

    I lived in a city for all of my life, and not living in one would change my entire way of life for the worse.

    Hayseeds love to shit on city living, but to me, their lives are like watching paint dry.

    Still, to each his/her won.
    Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
    Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848
    Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Kris Kristofferson, 1969

    Hunting and fishing . Not having to listen to your neighbors and having an orchard and garden plus livestock is a fun way to live. Anyone can go to the city for the Theater or a sporting event. Amazon and the internet makes most shopping just fine. And city air pollution SUCKS. And people actually like seeing the stars at night. Not having to listen to police sirens is nice. Also the heavily populated cities like New York were pounded hard by COVID. Do city dwellers even know where food comes from?

    he probably has a thirty minute subway ride to work, pays $2400 a month for a studio apartment and is excited because he can see a real tree from his kitchen window if he stands on box........

    meanwhile he can't afford tickets to live concerts or major league ball games and the bouncers won't let him into these nightclubs he brags of......
