So how does the government pay for rural infrastructure if literally the taxes are waived for both residents and corporations?
The military is already subsidizing rural areas. Over the past few decades, pretty much all major defense manufacturing got moved from upscale locations like Long Island and parts to California, to bumfuck nowhere parts of the country so that the MIC can save on taxes and labor.
Anyway the real problem now is we are in a death spiral that cannot be fixed. Our economy is moving towards serfdom. Cut property taxes and even more landlords will just pay up rural housing. They now will keep jacking rents and manufacturing jobs in rural areas will be unable to keep up with wage increases.
The real solution in my opinion is mass building of even more homes in suburban ban and denser housing. Flood the country with inventory to drop home prices. Then people in rural areas gain an avenue to escape because often they simply can't afford it currently.
