We are footing the bill for them to live there already. Rural areas are subsidized an incredible amount to our severe detriment. There is almost no decent forested area I can get to in the Midwest and it is only getting worse. Pollution is getting worse as people move further out. People are trapped and either have to get an expensive car or deal with riding poorly set up transit for hours a day. It is ridiculous.

- jcims 9y agoI live out in the boonies. There is a strong percentage of people on sites like this (reddit in particular) that think I'm some kind of geoboomer for not selling my home and renting a sixth story apartment in an urban setting. The fact that I selected to live here also makes me an uneducated bigot that hates brown folks and will almost certainly re-up in ~38 months.
- Yumz- 9y agoYou are free to live where ever you want -- as long as you support yourself. If you are receiving a disproportionate amount of tax dollars to roll our billion dollar road, telecommunication, etc infrastructure to you, well then fuck you. I hope the coyotes eat you alive.
