It's one of the reasons I hate this push to get rid of cars and move everyone into cities. It just increases the isolation of Farmers and other rural people. Strong Towns actually has a stated goal of reducing the interstate system! (Strong Towns, weak country, should be their new name.) We need to reverse this trend - more people back into tiny cities, and yes, even suburbs. Sure, looked at only from a money point of view, cities do a lot - but it's all services, and very little actual good people need in order to live. There's more to a strong country than just money.
