It's true isn't it? Yes it is. Citizens of this country aren't here to subsidize you or anyone else. If you have problems traveling ****ing move. You should have never moved there to begin with if it is such a burden for you. This is what I don't get, people make choices, then complain that they need someone to do something for them because they made the wrong ones.
Agreed.
I live in a somewhat rural area. Its ~100-150 miles to the nearest airport depending on which airport. If air service is of high importance to me then I would move closer to the airport. I also have to drive 30 miles one way to work, there is little in the way of public transportation, no garbage pick-up, no cable, no pizza delivery. As it were, rural, quiet, unrestricted is more important to me, so I stay put. Its my choice. If I need a flight I will drive or take a shuttle service or make arrangements. If I dont like where I live, I'll move.
it is almost as if Trump hates the very people who scraped him over the bar.
If it were not so sad it would be funny as hell.
That's how I feel.
Somehow it seems fitting that those who stood around in their red caps, doing their witless call and response with "Lock her up," and "Mexico," are now the ones losing their health insurance, their air service, ...
It would be funny if I didn't know that a lot of folks are going to have a rough time of it.
But they'll survive. They're resilient. They've got their bug out bags for when the SHTF.
And that is really very sad, because the people that voted for him trusted him to help them. They believed him when he said he would help them in their quest for a decent job and standard of living. They believed him when he said that he was going to make healthcare cheaper and still cover everyone.
He never mentioned that he was going to stuff his cabinet with Goldman Sachs guys and other billionaires, while cutting job training programs in Appalachia, rural subsidies, public schools, meals on wheels, etc.
And just where are all these promised jobs?
Yes help us to help ourselves. Bring back job and raise the standard of living not perpetuate federal handouts and out of control spending.
If Trump supporters wanted to be dependents and suck the federal teat they would have voted for Hillary.
Damn. With less Amtrak access, less ability to fly, people in many rural areas are going to be stranded, unless they want to drive 400 miles to the nearest city.
Imagine the hassle for someone wanting to go from Aberdeen, South Dakota to Tanzania.
Are you saying that rural America can't survive without socialist tax dollars programs?

Step 1. Get rid of well paying airport jobs
Huh.
Not sure of my opinion of it all to be honest. I'd need a LOT more actual infor.ation. But this is not the sort of thing that's going to help create jobs in the middle of nowhere. Quite the opposite.

Perhaps the Dept. of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service (the folks that used to make up the Rural Electrification Administration) should be abolished as well. Does this city boy no good, quit wasting my money. (FY 2014 Budget - $4.5B)
Use a candle at night...

I guess those rehab centers badly needed in W.Va and other areas to get all those opioid addicts functioning again are a no-go. You know, those addicts in areas where the pharmaceutical companies are dumping huge quantities of addictive drugs?
Those people will all be told you get no assistance whatsoever, and in the famous words of Nancy Reagan - "Just say no!"
