Rural America Shouldn't Be Forgotten



My most recent article addresses a critical problem that all too often the mainstream media completely ignores: rural poverty.  One of the best ways to create opportunity for rural Americans is to bring broadband internet to every corner of this nation.  It's a technical challenge, but we're making considerable progress, and more may be coming.  Read on for additional details.

Incidentally, one of this blog's most faithful and insightful followers, who you will know as Jack, pointed out to me that an additional benefit of bringing broadband internet access to millions more Americans is that they will be empowered to access information, education, and entertainment NOT approved by the mainstream media and/or the corporate/academic/Hollywood/Washington elite.  Now THAT is a goal worth embracing, wouldn't you say?

Here's the aforementioned article, published first in the Olean Times Herald:
