Columbus is capable of exactly the same dynamics, there’s nothing magical about San Francisco dirt.

Regardless of how long it takes, there isn’t any other choice. You have to start sometime so let’s start now. Collectivism doesn’t get us out of this either.

Yes, it will take a long time, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do it or that we shouldn’t start now.
