  • God people in rural communities are so stupid when they vote. I live in a very lopsided state. Just for ease of understanding, about 80% of the state is rural, but also 80% of the people live in the cities. Rural folks often forget just how many more people live in cities.

    So they get resentful and say “why are MAH tax dollars going to all them city folks”! I’ve had this talk so many times with them, why should they pay (like pennies or their salary) to my city improvements just because they’re state taxes?

    Well, rural guy, because in actuality “us city folk” subsidize all of the rural state. They think they’re paying for our stuff but turns out density is way cheaper and way more economically viable than rural. So we subsidize them all the time. I always remind them who do they think pays for the roads, the infrastructure, their state parks? It’s not them and their low tax income. Their life depends on the city people

    And then they vote to hurt us by cutting programs… And forget that we were paying for them to be on those programs.
