Garden cities seems the way to go

^

For those cities that already exist yes

otherwise id focus on rural, considering the brith rate is going down anyways

rural enviorments will also reduce absolute political and social depravity

This experiment was done on mice on that link I posted but it was supposed to be used as a basis for people as well

Rural living comes with many issues as well

mouse utopia experiment?

true but i prefer rural vastly to city

Yeah

The solution to the problems of cities is not the introduction of the problems of rural living

The West will only survive in the countryside

most rural issues are minimal, if planning is done correctly there really are no issues at all.

urbanization has caused the problems we see today

I live in Oklahoma I don't have to worry about any of this LOL

In Canada the power balance is non-existent.

Surround the city by the countryside ;D

Hurt

Cities hold 20-37 seats in Parliament, and entire territories often hold one.

But the urban seats can still control what happens to the rural territories.

depends on how many people live in each section

if cities have more people than territories then yeah that's justified

You can't have the city dwelling people decide what happens to rural areas like the northern territories.

I believe that is due to the territories having an insufficient population to do so

They can't begin to understand what life is like without being there, they banned the seal hunt and demanded that the people in the tundra start building greenhouses for food. :U

I personally agree with you, the people living in the rural regions should decide for themselves but like

how many people really leave out there?

Tens of thousands.

yikes

It's just that the power scales are tipped grossly in favour of the cities, and our leaders have never been out to rural areas unless they are the MP for one of those areas.

nuke the cities?

full of degenerates anyways

best solution

Cities need to focus less on "Education" and more on teaching.

ever since the industrial revolution, with each passing year it becomes more and more advantageous to live in a city

which explains hwy half the world lives in cities

Everybody needs a little bit of Elbow Room

2.8 billionto be exact-ish

The university students are some of the dumbest people I've ever met, not in their fields, but most everything else...

eh, i hate living in a city, the only nice thing is the proximity to some stores. However i really need room to develop and that I have in the rural areas

Almost 90% of people live right beside water
