Subsidized by "city and state?" I pay taxes for these exact things. These arent things that just happen because government prints money or decides to do things as a kindness. I pay taxes to build and maintain the infrastructure around my home and the amenities I want to go to and use.

I choose to live in a suburb of a major city where I can have all the amenities I desire and easy access to public trans for the big city (which I'd much rather use than drive in.)
