          The money and politicians will focus on the large urban areas, because that will maximize time and money invested.

          People in rural areas will not have the capacity to affect things at all.

        They get to vote, don’t they? They just don’t get to have their vote given extra privileges just because they live in a sparsely populated area, that’s all.
