I think I can summarize the OP thusly: "All economic and political powers should be in the service of the interests of big urban centers". No thanks.

- pnathan 11y agoConsidering that economic and political power is accruing to big urban centers, it will happen anyway.
- dublinben 11y agoConsidering a growing majority of the population lives in urban areas, it makes perfect sense they should have the power. It is antidemocratic for sparsely populated rural areas to have as much power as they do.
- aggieben 11y agoThat's actually only true if you count all towns bigger than 2500 people as "urban". That's really not very consistent with what most people think of as "urban" vs "rural". I live in a town of 26,000 people that is very much rural culturally and economically.
