Imagine, just try, the place you live disappearing....

...sure, we piss and moan about out towns, but stay, because at some level, we love much about them, no? For believers in climate change, man made or likely otherwise (?both), low lying coastal villages are already in trouble. But there are other phenomena of depopulating towns and centuries old villages. In the mid eastern war zones, for sure. But how about all those places in the former Iron curtain lands? With near zero replacement birth rates, and youth migrations to more attractive cities, some have only old folks, mostly. Yep, another result, longer term, of Communism.

One could say the same for many failing towns in the Appalachian coal fields, another result, longer term, of Capitalism.

Thanks, KB. Well, right you are. But when I recall my times traveling in China and the East Block, there's little honest comparison betwen the untoward sequelae of each respective econo-political system. Much greater than the huge differences in rank careless environmental degradation. But my Blog merely brought up two such issues. The US loathing (envious) left likes to make such comparisons, AS IF, but everyone with eyes and ears knows what really cooks.
