Its not the same thing they have chosen to prioritize defunding these hospitals its not the same to not prioritize refunding them

If you have the opportunity to help someone drowning and you stand by and say “lol sucks that your neighbor pushed you in here with him” and nothing else, you think that’s different?

Yes and that’s bad right? Because OP seems to think it’s good and right that rural areas are losing hospitals, that it’s what should happen.

how many of my tax dollars do I have to send to the places that are invading my city? do I have to constantly thank them for the masked goons? or am I allowed to let rural places live the way they vote for?

I mean you’re allowed to think whatever you want, I’m not stopping you, I just think it sucks.

It is bad, but also right. This is not the first round of cuts to health care. This is an entire issue area that experts can tell you more about, but the bottom line is, city people can't indefinitely subsidize the costs of dispersing modernity at the expense of our own needs.
