This same argument was made when people started to move into cities during the "great migration." People were concerned that our nation would fail without a solid backbone of family farming to support our economy. We didn't fail then, and we won't fail now. Part of this nation's strength is our ability to be ahead of the curve (really, to SET the curve) in international economics.
