Although its population has diminished over the past 20 years or so, Refugio (2, 712, 2020) remains way too big for anything of worldwide significance to be routed back to it.
The reasons? Too many stop signs, for one. Too much football, for another. The folks in this small town on the Mission River in south Texas continue to have "other" matters claim their attention.
Granted, the citizens of Refugio often talk with one another about matters of keen interest to many Americans, like the presidency, the overall work of Congress and how well the Economy is doing in the states or, for that matter, worldwide.
All such talk is but mumbling and grumbling over little or nothing.
What's going on elsewhere, in DC or in New York City say--none of that matters.

And "nothing else matters' is the case for most Americans, so believe folks from Refugio.
As long as there's food on the table, the Economy matters zilch to locals and most Americans. The Economy is worthy of attention only to those with an exaggerated sense of their own importance.
So, let's accept the way things really are:
1) Smallness matters most.
2) What is thought "great" elsewhere is of no importance compared to the score of the high school's football game.
3) Having a little job in a little town (grocery sacker, street sweeper and the like) is a better job than any in Congress or the State legislature; and
4) Instead of reducing the budgets of the various Federal agencies, Congress and the President should be focusing on forcing people in our over-crowded cities to either move to the suburbs; or else start a new very small community in a rural area (of which there are not many left.)
