Grow our drying rural communities

Improve the tax code by prioritizing those in communities that are dying out. Year to year extreme rural communities lose their population because of younger generations moving out into suburbs and cities. This results in higher older populations and decreases in public and private services. Hospitals are a prime example of this. The proposal would be for the federal government to eliminate income tax for these individuals living within these extremely rural counties, with 2000 residents or less. It would encourage businesses and individuals to move back into these rural areas and prevent them from losing services and dying off. It would serve to improve the local economy and begin to rebuild the communities. This would have little effect on federal income tax because of the limited amount of extremely rural counties in the USA, but have a profound effect on these struggling communities economic opportunities.
