Agreed. I left rural south west Missouri in 1978 and lived in San Diego for 28 years. Returned to Missouri in 2006 due to SoCal going to a one-party controlled state. I'm on 35 acres and have reconnected to community through a local christian church. Lot's of like-minded, patriotic, friendly, freedom loving people. No lock-downs here. Only interacting with Gov. healthcare are we forced to wear the face diaper. Looking back, it was a great decision. Love it here in the Ozarks.

Two societies too, it can't be any other way.
