This thread kind of demonstrates why urban areas NEED more government. Urban areas are full of people jammed together in a small area, and people together create chaos, discord, and problems for each other. (OK they can do some beautiful things together too.) You get fewer rights that way but somebody has to be in charge to get things done and keep things from falling apart, or at least try to. Whether they succeed or not is another question.
Let's be honest, urban areas are where wealth is made, and where most wealthy people are. Not really all that surprising that rural areas tend to have much more poverty, and therefore receive more government assistance.
OK, sure. I'll take my rural neighborhood to this any day:

In some ways be thankful. These would be the very people who, if the supply chained got interrupted, would be waiting on their FEMA bottles of water and food.
Sounds like these people don't even know where our food is grown.

They would also be the first ones to prove Darwin right, too.
Most people in 'Rural America" are quite obese and unhealthy. Can't be out there working the farm much eating pigs feet and grits all the time.
OK fine. Come on out and work in a rural area some time. Spend a day bucking bales at a farm or with working high line with a logger for a day. 98% of helpless urbanites will be crying for mommy in an hour. "What...you actually want me to do MANUAL LABOR? mommie "
