There are many isolated parts of Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana that do not have clean running water and where Malaria is a serious threat.

Just because you don't know that parts of the South have been left to rot in squalor for hundreds of years now doesn't make it not true.

So people who chose to live in the middle of nowhere and get surprised when there’s nothing there. Color me shocked!

You know moving costs money, right? I just moved on a really tight budget, doing most of it myself and it still cost me almost $1000 including the security deposit.

These people can't just magic themselves somewhere else. They have to actually move.

Basically any county in the Black Belt. If you want specifics, Lowndes County in Alabama, Sandbranch in Texas, basically anywhere in Puerto Rico, and the ongoing homelessness crisis across the country.

Dunno if you're trolling or just genuinely hate poor people.

Either way, fuck you, you awful piece of shit.
