text: I don't think anyone is mocking the choice to live in villages. We just don't want to hear the whining about not having the amenities of the big city. I would love to return to my hometown of Haines someday, but as I get older I realize I never will. Don't want to be that far from emergency healthcare if I need it. As a young person I lived on a homestead with no running water or electricity or plumbing. Sure never expected anyone to provide those luxuries for me!!! It's about choices. If I had to go live in a village now I'd save up my money and get myself an incinerating toilet. No outhouse for me. And I wouldn't expect someone else to provide it for me. CHOICES. By he way, please quit mocking my city by calling it "Los Anchorage."
