settler colonial brain. he was born back when everyone in America (except women, people of color) could just move west and buy a (newly annexed from natives) homestead for a nickel and live out their lives as a self-sufficient yeoman farmer.
but it's not even self sufficient unless they're forging the iron to make the nails and hammers, growing the trees for the timber, breeding the horses and chickens, and so on.
