Isn't that what Maher was saying though? An investment in a small town in the middle of nowhere to bring those places into the "party". The way Wal-mart did with Bentonville AK, or SC Johnson in Racine WI. Those companies have changed those regions for generations.
People here are saying you can't get programmers to move to Nebraska, but I don't buy that argument. Wal-mart and SC Johnson have attracted talented business people to Arkansas and Wisconsin. Sure, some won't want to go, but eager millenials who can't afford a home in Hawaii, Seattle, or Brooklyn will go.
