About 10% percent of Americans live in areas without access to broadband. Many who do have access can’t afford to pay for it. Expanding access and affordability could encourage entrepreneurs to think about starting businesses in places like Bryan, with its low cost of living. — PolitiTweet.org

Jobs have to pay more. Ohio’s minimum wage is only $8.80 an hour. The national minimum wage is just $7.25 and hasn’t risen since 2009. President Biden has proposed raising it to $15 per hour, which would be better, though still a low bar. — PolitiTweet.org

The diverging fates of places like Bryan and places like Palo Alto is clearly driving a loss of political faith, and that growing nihilism is threatening democracy itself. But it doesn't have to be like this. We can still turn it around. https://t.co/M8Pto7AZrZ — PolitiTweet.org

Palo Alto and Greenwich did fine. These centers of high tech and financial services create vast wealth in the US's so-called innovation economy. But hundreds of places like Bryan, both urban and rural, were allowed to erode. The innovation economy has largely passed them by. — PolitiTweet.org

The story of her working life is also the story of Bryan. The town is broken in some of the same ways that much of the rest of the country is broken. Understanding what broke Bryan is crucial to understanding how it might be fixed. https://t.co/IHAfcnYo6N — PolitiTweet.org

To see how the innovation economy has left much of the US behind, we traveled to the small town of Bryan, in northwestern Ohio's Williams County. This is a thread about how to fix what the innovation economy broke about America. https://t.co/M8Pto7AZrZ — PolitiTweet.org

A failure to vaccinate the developing world won’t just lead to more deaths. It will cause a raft of economic, social, and health effects—not just in the nations affected, but throughout the rest of the world. https://t.co/uiGo2fIhU0 — PolitiTweet.org

Microsoft is in the process of trying to eliminate its entire historic emissions. The company apparently wants to do it at $20 a ton? Do you think we can achieve reliable permanent carbon removal for $20 a ton eventually? https://t.co/B4cLaqSN0E https://t.co/Br38zVo68E — PolitiTweet.org
