as I said, I've been away for a long time, some of the stuff you folks are talking about, I haven't heard of either. I miss "back home" but I miss it as it was when I was a kid. Here in Germany ( the little part I'm in anyway) things are comfortable. Weather is great if you don't worry about some rain. Cold in the area I live is -10 celsius for a week or so at night and maybe -2 in the day. 19% sales tax (7% on feed and food). Church tax, dog tax, tax on radio#s/TV's. Tax on vehicles, tax on your tractor, a little tax on your property. But, no fences, there is a right of way between most every field and woodlot. You can ride a horse, bicycle, or walk forever and not be bothered. No meth labs, stuff doesn't get stolen, animal feed is plentiful/reasonable. Property is OK as far as price (5k an acre if you can find a complete one for sale) but restricted to death (probably no different than things are back home now though). I live in the boonies but am 10 minutes max from anything you'd want in 3 directions. I guess to have those pluses, it would be pretty expensive back home. If it was just me, I'd pack up and go, but don't want to uproot from good jobs and a lifestyle we're used to. Never know what tomorrow brings though. Keep the input flowing, I'm learning.
