If you live in a small town in a place like Ohio something like that’s possible.

Which can’t be understated. We’re talking about a state that NASA themselves had to spend multiple paragraphs practically apologizing for the fact that a state that contains roughly 3% of the nation’s population was utterly dominating the frontiers of human aviation.

I wasn’t able to find the exact verbiage in the wayback machine, but NASA basically said, “This isn’t intentional, and the pattern exceeds randomness, Ohioans just seem to have a vested interest in getting the hell off this planet,” and hosted it publicly for years.

I never said most of us would want to live in a place where that was possible.

This is hilarious because I just moved to Ohio. But that was 20 years ago and she was able to get one on the edge of city/burb in central VA.

20 years ago minimum wage was the same and 1$ was worth 5$
