They& #39;re largely blind to the massive gov& #39;t subsidies necessary to make high living standards in remote areas possible https://twitter.com/ryanlcooper/status/1249374913993101312">https://twitter.com/ryanlcoop...

Apart from the actual post office, these remote areas usually depend on transportation infrastructure that requires huge per person subsidies compared to urban areas. But most rural roads aren& #39;t expected to turn a profit the way urban mass transit systems are.

Many remote areas are still hopelessly service deprived despite the subsidies! Especially and increasingly an issue with access to medicine. https://twitter.com/15Deloreans/status/1249379463713951751">https://twitter.com/15Delorea...
