- lazide 2y agoOnline notaries have been a thing for awhile now. Don’t worry, we can still have dystopias with Notaries.

- spookie 2y agoIf a country does not strive to make good use of all its land and attempt to better the lives of its people why are there wars? Clearly they're fine with their top 3 cities. /s Seriously, you see this in any country of any size. Remote may just mean 300km/186mi off coast.

Then you have to be ready to accept that there are advantages and disadvantages to your choice of where you live, and that is one of the latter. There's a reason rural property is so cheap. It comes with a lot of disadvantages and inconveniences and costs that city-dwellers don't need to pay.
