I’ve been saying this since I moved out; I grew up with a nuclear family and it certainly has its merits; but it’s not exactly the norm, in history. 3 generations in one house is far more normal. Biblically, the significant condition is that a man leaves his mother’s house and cleaves to his wife. There are all kinds of ways this plays out, in potentia.

@KingOfWhiteAmerica @cowanon It's not terribly expensive to build multiple dwellings on your own land

@Escoffier @KingOfWhiteAmerica @cowanon your definition of 'terribly expensive' might differ from most lol

@EssentialUtinsil @Escoffier @KingOfWhiteAmerica @cowanon assuming we continue to move from a homogeneous high trust society to a multiracial low trust society, we might move from single (nuclear) family homes to larger extended family compounds estates out of necessity

@vonzeppelin @Escoffier @KingOfWhiteAmerica @cowanon that still requires either inheriting large enough estates or being able to buy them and also be able to build additional housing on said estates.

@EssentialUtinsil @vonzeppelin @KingOfWhiteAmerica @cowanon You can buy land in the country pretty cheap

@Escoffier @vonzeppelin @KingOfWhiteAmerica @cowanon true, but then what?

@EssentialUtinsil @vonzeppelin @KingOfWhiteAmerica @cowanon Seriously tho take Indy for example you could work in the city and live in some serious rural. This is true of a lot of mid tier cities

@Escoffier @cowanon @EssentialUtinsil @KingOfWhiteAmerica @vonzeppelin Even better, go into the trades like large animal vet and open a practice in the middle of nowhere farm country. You will make all the money because jobs like that are always in demand, you'll be able to make your own hours, and the cost of living is significantly lower in those areas.
Plus, you can enjoy firearms on your own property, and the neighbors' only complaint will be that you didn't invite them along!

@DoubleD @Escoffier @cowanon @KingOfWhiteAmerica @vonzeppelin You think you’re gonna make you’re own hours as a large animal vet in a rural area?

@EssentialUtinsil @cowanon @Escoffier @KingOfWhiteAmerica @vonzeppelin I didn't say it would be fun. Yes, I'm glad to see everyone understand these factors! The point remains that it is that you can make a good living in the trades/specialized agricultural skills in a rural area. The important factor is that you're away from the city with good money doing so.
