"It's only slightly less likely to change than the second amendment. High in the \"don't sweat stuff you can't change\" department. &#13;  The country: &#13; a. has large swaths of land where mainly like-minded people live, in large part because of their ties to the land, ties to the community, and (former) ties to work&#13; b. those large swaths of land don't attract the urban people who might break up that homogeneity&#13;  So until urban people start moving out of the cities (wait for gnashing of teeth because \"things just aren't the way they were\" and because, while property values go up, so do taxes), or even more rural people start moving into the cities (with increased crowding, wait for more self-segregation into like-minded communities within cities, as has always happened), it's not likely to change.&#13;  The best ways to get a more homogeneous country include some country-wide crisis (probably not a good thing), a lessening of mass communication (low on the likely tree), or mixing of all those people. &#13;  Those ties to the land, family, and community are good things. I miss them, and I'm trying to build them where I am. Everyone learns from each other, rather than feeling disdainful of things they don't think are a problem to miss.&#13;  Wendy P.  There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)"
