The western world has a blind eye to the realities of all things Russian. Unexplored and untapped fields in Russian territory never entered the equation. Of course that's also sheepishly glossing over the whole fracking bonanza.

I spent a good decade (having fun with chickens goats and pigs and all things doom) sitting on the Watchtower of Doom until my asscheeks fell asleep and my kid needed better schools than podunk missouri had to offer. It's nice to know if our society degenerates into an agrarian backwater I'll always have skilz.

Y'know, people believe all kinds of shit based on their exposure to data - be it intentionally sought out or just appearing in whatever feeds they get. Never forget "content generators" have an agenda, and some of the most case hardened opinions driving that content.

Here's an idea...
Round up crazy homeless and put them in simple barracks housing in agricultural work camps. Three nutritious meals a day, clean water mandatory daily showers/shaves and palliative health care. Med levels can be determined at induction detox period. In and out 15 - 30 day treatment programs have failed miserably so like parole hearings, once a year you get to pitch your bid for transition back into the real world / productive economy.

Non crazy people who find themselves jobless, penniless and homeless can also get a break from a hopeless situation and voluntarily sign up for a six month stint of farm labor with job placement assistance at end of term. Good option for women with kids needing some safety and a fresh start.

Just spitballing. The homeless are getting more numerous and crazy - what we've been doing seems to be a complete fail
