The people in the concentrated urban areas call farming areas "fly-over country," and love to point out that the urban areas contribute 70% to the national GDP.

The people in the concentrated urban areas call farming areas "fly-over country," and love to point out that the urban areas contribute 70% to the national GDP. In the past 10-20 years they started making noises about eliminating the Electoral College system. The fact that farmers have a say in anything is astonishing, and people are hard at work trying to prevent them from having any voice at all on a national stage. I find it all very short-sighted, but that's politics for you.
