Beat me to it, guys.
There's something about being a 20-something that convinces
you that you've got the solution to everyone else's problems that
is marvelously compatible with where your personal tastes and
interests lie.
I've got plenty of trees on my property. Where do I sign up to get
these ultra-urbanites to pay carbon credits me not to cut them
down?
Another paradox: Have you noticed that some of these people
who endlessly clamor that we need to be packed densely into
cities also argue on behalf of subsidized high-speed broadband
in the deprived rural hinterlands? One of the things keeping me
from living from where I really want to is the lack of high-speed
Internet required to run my business. It's great that these ultra-
urbanites are willing to pay higher taxes so I can live even further
away from them.
