  1. These people grew up without an understanding that if you want food, you go to the supermarket and pull it off the shelf, paying for it with food stamps (money that somebody else earned).

  3. Human ingenuity is amazing. The inhabitants of Easter Island used rock gardening to retain precious water for their scant crops.
    where there's a will there's a way.

  4. Human lack of ingenuity is also amazing. The reason Easter Islanders had to build those rock gardens was because they had chopped down every tree on the island.

    1. Actually it was more likely due to visiting ships offloading rats. That ate the vegetation and seeds.
      although i do understand the mentality of a self destructing society, as we are living it
