And you think it's justified for others to subsidize the lifestyle of those who live in rural environment?

This is about government funding - it's not a free market solution, it's about the government being honest in how much it is subsidizing different areas. If the total cost was visible perhaps people would say - hey maybe people shouldn't live there.

Honestly, given that they are some of the poorest parts of our country. Yes.

I'm also pro-single payer healthcare, and want us just to get on with it.

I don't believe the value of people is just the money they earn.
