I was just watching this video (https://youtu.be/WRkhWQ0sRn4?si=xCStyN\_6dGS3MTqE) and I just noticed how the presenter mentioned that a poor country has to finance a hospital, and this hospital would be so expensive that the poor country has to borrow money to finance the construction and all that. And I wondered, why can't the poor country just start at the bottom in the first place, at the grassroots level? Does it really have to be so expensive to construct a hospital? Does the native population have any trained healers that can heal the people at the grassroots level? How did ancient societies heal people? Why can't modern societies start there, at the grassroots level, healing people?

The video presenter also talks about poor countries and food imports and basic needs imports, and I would be like, "wait... are you saying that these poor countries aren't even self-sufficient?" WTF. Why are they even countries to begin with? How did we, as a human race, even get here in the first place--that we can somehow create our own societies without a care about self-sufficiency? Bet the ancient societies had to be self-sufficient. If they weren't, then their whole society would collapse. Why can't we just allow a modern society to collapse? How can we encourage all societies to make use of their own natural resources and build their own houses and feed their own people without any external aid?

Can't the people just use the natural environment to build their own houses? Maybe there is a lot of dirt, and the people gather up the dirt to make mud-brick houses. Though, the government may ban people from making such houses, but if they can't enforce it, then the people can do whatever they want. But if the government can actually force people to NOT build houses, then the people might as well just fight back. People have to live somewhere.
