Why can't the rural population pay for that themselves? If each of them can afford a car shurely they could collectively fund public transport themselves?
- harpersealtako 5y agoPublic transportation is more expensive for rural areas than urban areas because they are more spread out. At some point it becomes impractical, either because the service is unreliable/slow by necessity or because it's not practical for a bus to drive 10 extra miles down the road to get service to everybody. On another note, I'm still waiting for the hardcore anti-car people (the ones who want to ban car ownership and think rural people don't need cars, which I recognize are a loud minority) to tell me how I'm supposed to go public land deer hunting without a car/truck.
