    I grew up in rural west virginia, I honestly don't have any experience with suburbs. My hatred for rural backwaters is much higher than your hate for suburban housing developments. I prefer urban living and believe everyone should be forced to live in a city. No one should have to shit in an outhouse, or drink straight groundwater, or be forced to participate in farming at an early age. Suburban people can commute to the cities for the things they can't get in whitepicketfenceville. Rural people can't. I support getting rid of both of them.

      what you're describing here is rural poverty, not rural lifestyle in general. i agree that rural poverty should be eradicated; the way to do this is not to tear people from the countryside and force them to live in cities in some insane reverse-pol pot adventure

        It depends on where you live tbh if you have water connected to the municipal watersystem. Many people in the US drink well water straight from the aquifer but some rural people have pipes connected to their house. Don't get me started on septic tanks, out houses, and plumbing.
