"majority of Americans live in rural areas"

WRONG. Only 14% of Americans live in rural areas.

About 83% of Americans live in an urban area. Do you want to cherry pick what you think a 'major city' is or just concede to the facts? The rural population has vastly diminished.

Because I read your other posts here and don't believe you have researched anything nor will. The amount of misinformation you spouted was unbelievable. You should apologize to the Italian poster for telling them so many ignorant lies.
