Silicon Valley is betting on one Iowa town's efforts to bring tech jobs to rural America

Your tirade amuses this atheist, as I sit here in my comfortable $40k home with an annual tax bill of $300 in "middle of nowhere" Tennessee, surrounded by churchgoers and yes, quite a few meth heads, who know I'm sober and an unbeliever but leave me alone and are generally polite and helpful when I'm among them. I suspect my neighbors to the north in Iowa are likely to have the much the same lifestyle opportunities that I do.

If I thought it had a chance of cutting through your bigotry, I'd use this spiffy gig internet service I have here at home to show you the many ways in which Americans in high cost of living and high regulation states are getting assraped. Or perhaps I'd give examples of how I've never actually endured onslaughts of roving bands of zombies, stabbing out with their syringes and crucifixes to collect more members.

Instead, I suppose I'll just open the Amazon packages delivered this morning and then continue on with my online business, comforted by the knowledge that even if I was successful in showing you the errors in your thinking, you might actually move here and fuck it up for the rest of us.

Hope y'all have a nice day.
