Yes this is realistic advice. Two scenarios you may not have considered:
-
Vacation - you can still take this advice when you make occasional vacations which frequently required air travel except choose an international destination instead of a domestic one.
-
Home geography - A whole bunch of people live right on the boarder with another country and can drive or walk across without needing a plane ticket. Just because this may not apply to you doesn’t mean it doesn’t apply to everyone.

Again, you got that kind of money? I live outside DC, so not close to an international border. In fact, most Americans don’t live somewhere they can travel across the border easily. And with the way the government is denying entry to people with the wrong level of melatonin, I don’t think it’s particularly safe advice to tell people to start crossing the border regularly.
And most people in the US do not fly for vacations. It’s very expensive to fly, and most of us have cars we can take. I’m planning a family vacation later this year to visit my grandparents ~700 miles away. We priced it out and discovered it’s actually cheaper for us to rent an RV and drive than to fly. Flying, especially internationally for a shopping trip, is an extreme luxury for most of us.

melatonin helps you stay asleep, melanin is what causes skin, hair, eyes to darken

I don’t think we’re communicating with each other. I’m reading your posts and it looks like you’re responding things I never said, some even contradicting things I did say.
My advice applies to some, and it doesn’t sound like it applies to you. I hope you have a great RV trip. Drive safe!

Your advice is shit for the large majority of people reading. Just stop already.

Are you having trouble with reading comprehension? Look what you posted to. I had stopped that conversation.
You had to throw your little dig in here though. I was initially concerned, then I saw your post history and see this is just your regular habit. I hope your got your desperately needed dopamine hit.
