      seeing this all at once. its a lot. There is so much you can learn about the US just by looking at this. I hate it.

      Not a single one of these sections is the correct size. Except maybe the maple syrup and the beer.

      Replacing half of the cow pasture with (properly managed) timber would solve the worlds lumber shortage. I’d like to see more bamboo being grown. Its great for any buildings that are 4 stories or less. Or is it 3?

      LOOK AT RURAL HIGHWAYS VERSUS TRAINS. FOR FUCKS SAKE.

        tbf, a railroad is much more land efficient then highways so I’d expect that number to be pretty small no matter what. Though I suppose you could make the argument that the rural highways number should be zero, which is valid too.

        I’m pretty annoyed they don’t have parking lots or suburbs in there. Why are “rural highways” called out, but not the millions of miles of sprawling suburban roads?
