Just as the USA highway system is subsidized such that rural highways
still are built and maintained even if the population/traffic flow is
less than in suburban areas.

The highway system is NOT subsidized. Federal fuel tax collections exceed
federal transporation outlays for roads/bridges/tunnels. The data is
available from US Govt. sources.
This is also the case for airports. I don't know where "Skyloon" gets
the notion that airports get General Fund money.
