That’ll be a good Half As Interesting video

Have you realised how he always places emphasis on certain words to make it seem bigger. like he doesnt just use the word "vastly' he uses the word a GIGANTIC ENOURMOUS AMOUNT of times more than other channels

Very clickbaity, imo

he loves making vast videos too

Maybe there are vastly reasons for that.

It's actually underpopulated in terms of land area. (Not that Kauai could support a larger population, it really can't without serious infrastructure changes which would hurt the character of the island). I do projects on Kauai and most of the pushing out of the locals are because people are building homes they aren't even living in over there... It's kinda infuriating to watch. :/

Ugh, I'd hate for Kauai to end up covered in a concrete jungle like Oahu. It's such a beautiful place. I lived on Oahu for 3 years, and it felt way too crowded and somewhat artificial. I'd take weekend trips any chance I could to get out to the other islands, and I tell people to this day that you haven't really seen Hawaii unless you've gotten away from Oahu. All that said. Kauai is my favorite island by far. I have some good memories at Barking Sands.

73,000 is small in comparison to Oahu is the point he was making in the video. Pretty much all of the islands have been experiencing big population bursts from ppl in the mainland unfortunately which he wouldn't be able to really cover in the video. Even Molokai has been having a lot of haoles coming to the island.

What about the rich landowners in Kauai? Don't they disproportionately own a lot of the land?

It's all about WHERE the people are. Japan has crazy dense populations in certain areas, while there are massive swaths of untouched land. He's just speaking in terms of overall density based on land area

Also, food. Malasadas became an icon in Hawaiian cuisine and Portuguese sausage.

And gave us the word podagee also 😂

Ukulele the Hawaiian word reflects the type of music it produced when they listened to it. Comes from the Hawaiian word.. Uku-- flea Lele-- jump,hop,skip,fly. Yup- produced music sounding or movement like a jumping, skipping ,hopping, or flying flea.🤣😅👍 Must of and still is alot of fun to listen to what kind of music they produced.😁

@@LeKo-wo7bv The fingers "jumping around" on the strings and fret board made them think of fleas.

So I guess the Americans are the villains because? The natives killed in slaughtered each other for years as Noble warriors. So tired of the one-sided. Mostly friendly. Natives virtuous

Thanks for sharing from the Island. I am always interested in people living authentic lives

L j

I understand what you mean for I love the same type of natural environment... In fact, I'd love to go back to those islands... and stay for long there!! I've written a couple of "stories" from my visit by 1980 and both of them tell of the beautiful hawaiian people I met there because they were HUMBLE and GENTLE! That is what really matters about "places". One of the situations took place in Kauai - visiting the fern-grotto cave - and the other near Hanauma Bay - entering the Devil's Eye - 👍🤣

I WISH YOU AND YOUR THE VERY BEST!

I used to live in Pahoa and went to school in Hilo, I thought exactly the same thing. It’s not packed but it is certainly not empty.

I think the people of Nunavut would like that a lot, because we all know they have a lot of people and the population density is obviously very high

At that point I think it's just spite- "This native people can have their sovereign nation on these islands, but we'll be damned if we let the Spanish Bastards take an inch of land!"

I mean, the same thing happened with the British American Civil war, where the British "wanted" to allow American Indians to keep land whereas America wanted to well, do a colonialism and take all of the land for themselves, massacres be damned.

The problem is Hawaii has a geographical isolation (the Pacific Ocean), the Falklands were still in the sphere of influence of the naval empire that was the British Empire (the Atlantic Ocean). Also Britain could not really take advantage of this strategic location, at this point, Britain didnt really have much going for it. The American west coast is mainly occupied their rival, the U.S.; British Columbia was not so important of a trade hub when the French has locked them in from much Atlantic trade with Quebec, and Australia was a penal colony that did most of their trade through the Cape. The Hawaiian crown also emulated everything about the British royal court and visited the Queen in London in a grand worldwide journey, an endeavor most monarchs would not go about doing. The British admired that an exotic kingdom on the other side of the world would do so and also Victoria felt humbled by meeting these royals that looked up to them for civilization rather than the other way around when a larger empire would have to forcefully impose civilization to foreign barbarians.

We would have gone to war with Spain or France over a gust of wind. And rightly so

Great Britain and Hawaii have historically very close ties. Britain was Hawaiis closest ally. Their relationship is reflected in the Hawaiian flag as it closely resembles the British flag.

Maybe planes, trains, and automobiles made people not rely on the Mississippi River too much?

when i lived in louisiana i remember hearing about how the state makes LOTS of money off of natural resources, which confused me considering the roads were terrible, the public places were poorly funded, and everyone around me was poor. going to school you would see houses in various stages of decomposition as they sunk into the ground or the roofs fell into themselves. almost everyone lived in a trailer too and lived off of food stamps ☹

Id bet the Jones act has a lot to do with it. It requires all cargo between two US ports to be sailed on US made ship and majority US crew. There are almost no ships that meet that actually meet those requirements these days. It has basically cratered our domestic shipping industry.

The Mississippi River was only really relevant during the advance westwards and the various booms that occurred. It's no longer a booming area, mostly rural with people deep set in their ways, therefore the economy doesn't grow. So the river which is also their greatest asset, is also their greatest curse.

@@soliloquy5995there is a lot of river transport on the Mississippi. It is mostly farm products being exported from the Midwest.

I haven’t been to Hawaii, but I thought about this several times throughout the video based on some of the history presented here. I’m sure you are gorgeous and just know you are special!

44:05 race mixing is "a historic tragedy". Apparently RLL is a ethno-nationalist now. 😅

You sound really ignorant and liberal educated with your nonsense. The west are not the only ones to see things by race. Asians very much divide people by ethnicity which is the same difference. Even africans do. South americans do. In fact these days black people have a new word, colorism. It means to divide people by skin tone, Which they claim black people do a lot. As for his population stats, The last population stats he gave was a hundred years ago or longer And no, the populations were mixing to such a degree that it's irrelevant to keep the stats divided. The population would have still been very much segregated because of culture With little mixing. For sure, there would be some mixing because guys will screw any girl that they think is pretty. But you are overplaying it. Especially where the plantation and therefore, the plantation workers would be compared to the population of natives. Mixing would have sped up more decades later as the workers settled and had children that expanded beyond the plantations. He didn't give the stats that late in the history because it wasn't relevant. Not that your point is relevant at all because the only point of the stats is the relevance to the conflict between America, Hawaii, and Japan. Japan would see their people as different from the natives, even with mixing, because ethnicity is very important to Asians. And the Japanese aren't Anglo, so don't have an Anglo informed view of race. I get it you've been raised under a liberal school system. So you're not very educated. But you've been lied to. Japan is not a race by the way. It is an ethnicity, so your diatribe that just needed to mention that we invented race was irrelevant because it wouldn't apply here.

Thank you for educating us on this I didn't know this

U do realize that on the "anglo" islands alone there are different ethnicities that can be mixed right? Or do u just see "white" as one race, like most dumb americans?

Instead of being able to hop in a car and travel to 100's of destinations you really only have a few options no matter which Hawaiin island you are on. Also there aren't really seasonal changes, which again makes things a bit more monotonous.

While your basic point is true, I think you need to temper that (I can't tell for I mentally caused a pun there) with the overall risk of volcanic activity on the Big Island.

The big island is my favorite. The locals, both native and non- native are not so overwhelmed by crowds that it seems they as a whole are more friendly and easy going. I certainly would not claim that the big island is desolate.

@@BlisterBang Not much volcanic risk on most of the Big Island of Hawaii. Mostly just the SE corner of the huge island or near the active volcano there.

Question though, did you only measure the eight main islands (Big Island to Ni’ihau) or did you measure the entire Hawaiian archipelago including the over 100 smaller islands down the line?

Flagstaff is wetter because it snows. Living in the snow requires a different lifestyle. From keeping a shovel and snow tires to a simple window scraper. It’s easier to not deal with that, it shows with the population demographic leaning to higher than average retired or near retiring ages.

In Europe, the divide between city and country was even more extreme. Due to constant wars, farm land near cities was prized. Hawaii and other cities like New York should do the same. Supply lines sometimes fail. The ability to grow food on land or have clean fresh drinking water close at hand should be paramount in importance. Im living in a two acre sprawl development mess outside of NYC. Yes, the natives have been mostly displaced. The farm land mostly developed. More toxic pestacides per acre than farm land are spread for lawns in an area supplying drinking water to others and that gets its water largely from wells. We could use a few high rise buildings here , take down the sprawling ranch homes and put the land in conservation for passive forest farming/organic farming and watershed, tourism use. Our zoning wont allow buildings over 40 feet. Hawaii should do the same. Natives should start building up in their communities creating green high rise communities and restore or conserve the land around the buildings as green spaces. By renting the top floors for tourism, they can recoup the cost and buy up more land to build and conserve. In Greece, the landowners work with builders who raise their single family homes on to the top of the high rise buildings. Its a bit comical to see! -but they dont have to sell out and own rentable appartments out of the deal. The builder gets to build without first buying the land so has a better financial picture for the actual building to be built. They don't require so much borrowing then and can get the loan to build without capital. Its been a win win for land owner and builder. If natives work together, pool rescources, they could do the same. Maybe create native only investment corporations whose goal is to create housing ownership for all native families involved. The trick is to gain control of a large contiguous piece of land so voting on local laws for projects to move forward will be easier. Drafting petitions to United States government and the UN to have areas returned or protected as native lands might be possible due to history of misappropriation. Drafting a plan for conservation and development of areas that would be feasible might ve a first stem. I would also hope that the huge holdings by a few ultra wealthy individuals might be passed for reasons like tax incentives back to the natives, at least in part. The rest being held for conservation and farming purposes. Having a single owner of a large estate as it is now, has held many areas free of sprawl and destructive development. There are other natives concerned here too, the wild life. Things can change very rapidly upon death of an individual large land owner. The time to act is now.

That's why I also advocate for Free Association with the US that way we can have visa free travel along with the movement of goods and still proclaim our sovereignty as an independent nation on the world stage. Also as a nation we would have access to things like the International Monetary Fund so we wouldn't need to declare bankruptcy. We can also decide our own trade so we can get goods cheaper from throughout Latin America without paying for US protectionists tariffs.
