I am an American Veteran. My fellow Americans, you need to get out of rural areas
While I appreciate the message that "Dems need to talk to rural America", and I'm thankful that, on rare occasions, a State with more cows than people will send a Democrat to the Senate, I'm tired of this mythical "Dems need to reach out to rural America" bullshit.
I want to say "****" a thousand times, because I'm about fed up to my latte drinking ass with this ****ing "Dems need to talk to rural Murika" bullshit.
Alll this ****ing country has been doing, EVEN 200 years before it was a country, has been talking to and catering to these white rural areas .
We can't even get a ****ing Post Office in Columbus Ohio named without first considering how it impacts rural America!
I would not be so ****ing pissed about this, if just ONCE since the creation of this country, ANYONE had suggested that "rural America needs to talk to urban America ...JUST ONCE!
Maybe rural America should visit some inner city schools, with their delapidated buildings, broken desks, faulty electrical systems, broken plumbing and broken windows.
Maybe rural America should come over and share a few pitchers of water with a Flint Michigan Family.
Maybe rural America should visit some poverty stricken areas of the city and, when they ask why people live there, they can find out that for 400 years, Banks and Real Estate Agents have "redlined" them into those areas and told them this is the ONLY place they were welcome.
Maybe rural America can visit an area of 20,000 that doesn't have access to fresh produce and groceries within 10 miles. Not by choice because they want to "live out in the country", but because the stores are all in the "good areas" of town.
Maybe rural America should sit down with that waitress serving $60 Steaks for 12 hours a day for minimum wage, who then has to drive an UBER for 4 more hours so she can afford her 400 Square Foot Walk-up and childcare for her kid.
Maybe the problem ISN'T that "Dems aren't talking to rural America". Maybe the problem is rural America doesn't give one **** about anything but rural America .
Why is this always only a one-way street?
Why do I see thousands of these "Dems need to reach out to rural America" stories, but never even one "Retrumplicans need to reach out to urban America" stories?
Why is urban America expected to "understand" and "empathize" with rural America, but that expectation is NEVER reversed?
Is rural America the only ones that have a story to tell?
Are they ever asked to "understand" where 65% of Americans live?
Do we ever go to the corn farmer and ask him, or her, to understand what the Taco Truck owner in Los Angeles, or the single mom in Atlanta has to deal with?
Of course not.
Why would rural America ever give a shit about urban America when they're NEVER asked to?
Call me when Chuck Todd shows up to talk to voters in Pittsburgh instead of ****ing Beaver County, PA.

I've got a great idea! DUpipo need to boycott, utterly refuse to buy, products from "rural America"! :-) :tongue:
As for the entirely irrelevant, "I am an American Veteran," (https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Mn4ZfbDtPeA/XeIznkVa9OI/AAAAAAAAUdQ/ErJ4XsR4GXU3iJqfbAO5SmxpZBbSf5XyACLcBGAsYHQ/s200/emitting-virtue-signal-npc-wireless-reee-802-11-reee-802-11-37602667.jpg)

Alll this ****ing country has been doing, EVEN 200 years before it was a country, has been talking to and catering to these white rural areas . What urban areas were here in 1500's? Even in the 1600's, few settlements and harbors could really be called cities.
We can't even get a ****ing Post Office in Columbus Ohio named without first considering how it impacts rural America!

Maybe rural America should visit some inner city schools, with their delapidated buildings, broken desks, faulty electrical systems, broken plumbing and broken windows. Yup, none of those in tiny farm towns, like where I grew up, where they've been using technology to teach 2-4 towns at once cause there ain't funds to pay for teachers in all the towns.
Maybe rural America should come over and share a few pitchers of water with a Flint Michigan Family. Ever had to price digging a well, either for home or farm use? Jump through county hoops to get permission for such things?
Maybe rural America should visit some poverty stricken areas of the city and, when they ask why people live there, they can find out that for 400 years, Banks and Real Estate Agents have "redlined" them into those areas and told them this is the ONLY place they were welcome. Looked up a few poverty maps, rural America has an awful lot of poor people too, and they don't have Best Buys or Walgreens to go loot when times are hard. And again, 400 years ago would be the 1600's. Not a lot of the type of banking and real estate work you're thinking of going on
Maybe rural America can visit an area of 20,000 that doesn't have access to fresh produce and groceries within 10 miles. Not by choice because they want to "live out in the country", but because the stores are all in the "good areas" of town. Try 20 miles and two towns over to the nearest Walmart, cause the mom and pop grocery store chad to close cause couldn't keep up. Also, feel free to go start up your own darn high quality, fresh produce carrying grocery store in one or more of those "food deserts".

Why is this always only a one-way street? Cause proggies only care about their power and bank accounts

Are they ever asked to "understand" where 65% of Americans live? Ask those 65% to name a rural state
Do we ever go to the corn farmer and ask him, or her, to understand what the Taco Truck owner in Los Angeles, or the single mom in Atlanta has to deal with?
Of course not.

Call me when Chuck Todd shows up to talk to voters in Pittsburgh instead of ****ing Beaver County, PA. Looks like urban Pennsylvania is pretty solidly blue, while rural Pennsylvania is more split, requiring more campaigning to get those votes out. Want politicians to come talk to you? Give them a reason instead of automatically vote a straight party ticket all the time. Career politicians don't want to do any more work than is required to get elected.

Typical DUmp sound and fury signifying nothing.
-
Most of the things the DUmmie complains about are the direct results of Democrat policies and control.
-
I for one am all in favor of Democrats leaving rural areas. At least for me there would be a haven for common sense.
Sp please, all Lefties, go ahead and concentrate among the crime ridden, urban hell holes.
It is your natural habitat after all.

Sounds like this very angry primitive S.P. Rushley needs to examine what happened to the Roman Empire when they focused more on what was best for the city of Rome than the rest of the kingdom.

When a DUmbass claims to be a vet the acronym that comes to mind is REMF (Rear Echelon Mother ****er).

Being that I reside in a rural area, I completely agree with this primitive

Maybe he doesn't like to eat. All those things that end up on his dinner plate didn't originate in urban America. I don't recall seeing pictures of crops of corn and wheat in Central Park.

As a part time rural resident, I support this idea.

Every survivalist-guerilla I've ever talked to has a plan for trapping city-dwellers in a city after shutting-down airports and setting-up blockades and choke-points. Pick any city. It has its own unique vulnerabilities.
Da Vinci and Henry Ford even had concerns about the idea, pro and con.
