Continued Thoughts

To continue thoughts on a previous post and the “dry up” of rural/small town Midwest, I began to wonder if the inhabitants of these smaller towns don’t feel that they are “behind” as far as development…perhaps they are completely content with a slower paced lifestyle that does not need nor welcome change. Our world is in the midst of a technological revolution, It’s not that I find it strange for people to want to live a simple life, with little to no technological application or advancement, I just don’t understand why you would not want to at least investigate and keep up with the rest of the ever changing world.
