gollark: I feel like you're drastically underestimating how bad life is without any modern technology.
gollark: Well, I do care about that, because having a worse economy means people's quality of life is generally worse.
gollark: I do think it would be good for cities to be split out into somewhat smaller cities with better land prices/traffic/etc, though.
