    Yeah the massive amounts of land that have no towns or even houses in the western half of the USA throws the density curve pretty dramatically. Makes it seem like the USA isn’t the surveillance state it really is, while making other smaller (land wise) surveillance states seem worse. With the density looking less problematic, it really lets the frog that is the American populace not notice the water getting closer to boiling.
