The problem there is they can make cars in Korea. But they can't dig ditches in Korea and export them to the U.S.

Also ability to get ammunition. Black powder is easy to make but it's dirty and modern smokeless powder is more difficult. Never mind percussion caps. Without ammunition guns aren't much good, no matter how they are made.

`By being visibly white you gain an automatic differentiation from those who are non-white.` Thought experiment. Two crazy looking homeless people approach you yelling. They are dirty in ripped clothes and look to be high on strong drugs. O

One of the lowest hanging fruits in water conservation are reducing irrigated forage crops (like alfalfa or silage). Without getting into meat production, dairy is a tremendous user of water. I'm particularly excited to see lab created

To see if that's logically feasible, visit Yuma and look at the scale of the operations. Or google maps sat view and do some image searches. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Yuma,+AZ/@32.6778769,-114....

Some CEOs could probably be effectively automated with a broken Excel spreadsheet, a copy of AutoHotkey, and a "Hello Barbie" series talking doll. Many however provide some serious value that won't be automated any time soon

If we have a civil war who will buy the nonstick frying pans? And the fanatics who win have the bomb pointed at them? I think they'd rather we slowly wound down in a predictable fashion.

Most of human history does not fall under a collectively owned economy. Maybe much of human pre-history, or peoples with no history could be classified this way (although struggles for control of resources was still pervasive), but the hist

I don't really know of any great sociologists though. I kind of feel it may be a made up field to promote forms of Marxism and not something that actually contributes much to the body of human knowledge. Nothing entirely wrong with tha
