Your thinking is distorted.
You act as if those with a Traditional Latin Mass nearby won some kind of lottery.
1. Some people worked to get a Mass center built. They donated money, time, labor, and other resources. They got along with and networked with others to this end. And they either convinced the SSPX to service their chapel, found an independent priest, or both.
2. Some people had "place to go to Mass" as a priority when they decided where they would live/work. I'm sure many people gave up $$$ (money that folds) to be closer to Mass. So comparing a person who would live "anywhere" with a person who would only live "within 1 hour of a TLM" is unfair. A person in the first category should, all things being equal, make a certain % more money per year than those in the second category. It's a question of logic and statistics.
3. Most people who have no Traditional Mass nearby are not forced to stay in their current situation. They could launch out into the deep and find a new job in a different place. As of 2012, we are not living under a communist dictatorship where people are forbidden to move or determine for themselves where they will live/work.
