> Not all choices need to be subsidized.

Interesting choice of vocabulary.

You could decide not to serve people without also describing them as freeloaders in order to feel morally righteous about your choice.

People choosing to live in rural areas aren't freeloaders. Until they demand the rest of us subsidize them. The demand for subsidies is what makes a freeloader, not the lifestyle choice.
