I think it's the absence of farm animals.

[decimon]

Urbane ping.

[Larry Lucido]

Rural folk are much saner.

[stormer]

[Brilliant]

Time to ban cities. They are not good for your health.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Having to rely on DemocRATS for your survival and having ACORN freaks showing up at your door, 24/7, to register you to vote would drive anyone crazy.

[stormer]

[cripplecreek]

City folks are nuts.

[devere]

There is a commendable lack of psychiatrists in rural areas, so if you are crazy you’ll never get diagnosed. You may even get elected to Congress.

[Brad from Tennessee]

[I think it’s the absence of farm animals.]

The exotic marvels of the city become mundane when compared to the joys of animal husbandry.

[cripplecreek]

Crazy in the country is OK because nobody bothers you.

[FormerACLUmember]

The incidence of psychosis escalates in a mathematically linear fashion as one approaches the center of large urban areas.

In other words, City Center = Miserable CrazyTown and Distant Suburbs = Happiness Village.

The same geographical mathematics applies to voting for Obama/democrats/socialists.

[Rockingham]

Or the greater rate and variety of infections in urban areas.

[CodeToad]

Maybe this is because the mentally ill find services in cities and go there?? Duh.

[SERKIT]

Two key subjects for the study:

[CrazyIvan]

It’s so much easier to dispose of bodies out here in the
boonies.

[CodeToad]

P.S. And because social services drop off the mentall ill once on their med to shelters located within cities.

Nothing drives people crazy like the constant presence of people. You get more relief from people and their shenanigans in the country.
