Its more than empathy. Its our cultures implicit (and unstated) - TopicsExpress



          

Its more than empathy. Its our cultures implicit (and unstated) belief that success means big city jobs. And if you cant find work at home then your job is to move. In this, the Europeans have a much more holistic set of pubic policies, IMO, that support a rural ecosystem. However, OUR industrial agricultural system (of which I was once a part) thinks that the European system is counter to the market. And to them, OUR system, which includes public subsidies like the USDA Extension system and land grant universities like my alma mater UGA and VaTech (or WSU), doesnt count as disrupting market forces.
