People in micro village should be moved or let to themselves.
It is a pretty violent opinion. But there are too many of these village of 200 people, 180 retired, 10 unemployed and 1 bakers. These area are basically dead, but because a few people absolutely want to stay living there, the state still has to do the whole infrastructure, security, civil servant, healthcare stuff.
This is an incredible waste of ressources that could be used elsewhere.
Is this a European thing
It’s an US thing too. I guess you guys would call it « living off the grid »? The big difference is in Europe the government has the responsibility to make this grid available for all. So if you live in isolation you kinda force a large expense to keep you connected to civilization
