2. I feel so sorry for people facing economic strife. I have never really known it.

It would be someone like you who has lived it who could get through to them. So glad you got a job and things are looking up. And yes it is all about luck our various situations. But it is also who gets elected. Biden's broadband will mean someone with a talent for something (crafts, design, language, refurbishing finds from a thrift store, etc) does not have to move to a city for work. They can go into business for themselves and lift up their rural community.

I realize now that months ago someone on DU was arguing with me about how broadband would mean rent and housing prices would go up. They must have been a MAGA troll. Yuck.
