I’m awake.

Particularly who wants to pay high taxes to support rural areas when you hear constantly “what about those moocher red states?” No one in New York or California wants to pay for infrastructure here (and my state has a net loss on federal income).

That also fits with the complaints of high costs in areas like San Francisco or New York for housing: They ain’t making more land. Folks in those places like their perks like parks and zoos.

When folks in those places talk about making low income housing (not a reality as long as land costs so much), no one talks about building it on Central Park or where the San Francisco Zoo currently are (land which is not used for housing).

I do not believe this. As we just noted, Obama, a city kid, wanted to provide broadband to rural areas. Legislators from blue states — less rural practically by definition — supported him. USPS is supported by dems, even though I subsidize every letter you send to keep costs equal across the country. If rural people want better services, they’re going to have to support democrats. I’m not holding my breath.
