    Because America’s towns are still dying and this is a way to revitalize them.

    If rural America isn’t good enough for them, they can stay in their current nation or try to move to a different one.

    The alternative would be them not having this option. This is literally nothing but gain.

      The solution to dying towns isn’t to force people to go die in them as well.

      The alternative would be to let people in without such stupid requirements.
