50. It might not be to the focus of your post but you just can't have
sustainable communities or economies without diversification and integration. I think you made a good point. Sorry the "flat earthers" felt compelled to jump up your butt. Having grown up in the "rust belt", I know the effects of putting all your financial eggs in one basket. When things go bad they go really bad and there aren't any immediate options.

An anecdotal observation of this was my ex's companies. They were so heavily invested in taking care of one retailer, when things went bad for that one customer, two companies and thousands of people got the dirty end of the stick.
