The natural extension of this is that everyone should live in one big megacity. Is this what you want?
No need to be so extreme. We still need village and middle sized city. But the dead zones ? I think it make no sense for the state to support a full service at the top of its fingers
Alternatively:
Government attempts an economic revival with incentive for young people to move to these places. Some will naturally take hold and flourish, others will not
Not perfect either, but gives the places a fair chance and leaves the outliers that can survive. Sometimes the burden of the old shit (not just people) can be too much and drag revival down as well, so it wouldn't be permanent megacities
Just spit balling off their idea
I mean, it would make travel a lot more convenient. As long as we need agricultural workers it's tricky to even consider, though.
