People left behind?

According to Robert Reich, the country is divided like this: "On one side, mega-urban clusters centered on technologies of the future. On the other, great expanses of space inhabited by people left behind." I feel he misses two points. First, there is far more inequality in the so-called most progressive coastal states than there is in the heartland. Second, the technologies of the future are increasingly making location irrelevant. Sooner than he can imagine, the masses of underemployed in California and New York will cast an envious eye at the gilded lives of the hi-tech plutocracy in their states... and come for theirs!

Alexandria is not fond of mega-urban clusters... at least not ones that might gentrify her district

politico speak indicating the cities are the place to be......

And that folks living in the midwest, the south, the rockie mountain region are somehow a lesser form of human being

Only the Dems could craft this kind of shit

the party of inclusion sure talks out of both sides of its mouth

know how I think, what I eat if I like dogs or guns or if I am fair to people of all kinds. Democrats talk the game Republicans are actually far more compassionate, in general.

Seems like an extension of identity politics.

When I visit cities, as I am right now, I am reminded Agent Smith's quote in the matrix:

I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure.
