I noticed a couple of articles in my local rural newspaper. They lamented the closure of a hospital and the lack of ambulances to reach rural residents in a timely manner.

I feel like rural residents are being set up to be afraid to live in the country, since medical care is so far away in the cities.

They are pushing us to move to a smart city, but they don't know us very well. The country folk on my hill would rather die in their homes than move to any kind of city. And most are older folks who resisted the vaxx and are darned proud of it.
