    How? Like that’s saying a town should not get water because they don’t have that many residents. Every paid for tampon is for the same reason no matter where it is placed. This is just a convoluted rationalisation for discrimination

      More like a water company not being willing to run pipes out to service that one house up the hollow past where the state stops bothering to pave the road. And you know what? Water utilities don’t run those pipes, because it would cost a bunch of money for very little public benefit. You don’t have to get too rural before you start seeing people with well or spring water because it stops being worth it to run city water.
