I'd wager that as soon as the first homeless* person puts their tent in your garden, you'll find walls, borders and land ownership a lot more attractive. *= made homeless due to the unequal distribution of wealth in so-called free markets But that, sadly, is what the difference between a desire to migrate and actual migration boils down to. Most people in Sub-Saharan Africa wouldn't be able to buy or rent a house in the US or Europe due to their financial situation, which again is mostly caused by the unfair distribution in so-called free markets.

>I'd wager that as soon as the first homeless* person puts their tent in your garden, you'll find walls, borders and land ownership a lot more attractive. you'd lose that wager. i've lived in the third world (africa) and my relationship to space and community is probably much different from yours.

  That is probably correct, as I am on the side of the spectrum where I like sitting in perfectly quiet nature to relax. Too much noise or too many people would ruin that experience for me.

  In which case you're likely an extreme outlier and not a good model for generalization given the history of humanity
