Just think when you happen to visit some places, either in Minnesota or outside of Minnesota, you might feel, oh, these people are struggling, suffering.

How come they don't move to a different place? But if you happen to talk to them, They would think you are crazy because they get comfortable with even with the pain they are living in.
