I'm a country kid that went to the University. I still remember the country life. Wixom like was near me and there the city people would move to their resort homes and play with their water toys. They had more money and felt superior to us. I over heard one of the girls say when she was asked, "What are you doing here?" She responded, "Watching the grease slide."
They likely didn't know the source of the food that they were eating. Hundreds of tons of beans, corn, and sugar beats at the time were being harvested from our fields. You likely took that for granted and thought that would continue for ever.
That generation is now living in houses on some of our best farm land. We sold it to land developers. They divided into lots and wrote deed restrictions that prohibit you from growing your own food.
Mike was you to watch this.
