The change in rural America over the last two generations is far greater than the changes in urban life and the exodus from rural to urban continues at a rapid pace yearly. Rural areas have always been areas of basic or commodity use and production which is the lower end of the food chain if your will and thus the value added comes from removing those basic assets and creating more value added in other places. Also we have modernized, logging, farm production, mining etc. to the point where far, far less labor is needed to produce those goods and thus the need for people to exit the rural areas to find employment. We see now that significant resources from urban centers (money) are now being invested in rural areas, as rural communities don't have that kind of money and thus fewer people are needed and more control comes from non rural controllers. Governments have and do influence that as well. Federal programs probably have impacted rural areas more than urban areas even though urban areas get far more dollars as that shows the resource difference between the two. Major industries like pork, eggs, poultry, mining, logging, veal, oil, are under the ownership mostly of those who don't even live anywhere near rural America. Also true of major acreages of land. Dairy is quickly heading down the road of outside ownership. Beef will probably be the last hold out from the production aspect but also processing is going to others rapidly. Now with broad ban, internet, cell phones etc. rural residents can interact socially as do suburban and urban residents and thus we now have the urban exodus to the rural areas of people who want more solitude and have know idea or feeling of how these areas developed. Thirty years ago I taught up to 90 students that milked a total of about 10,000 cows and with families that was about 400-500 total people. Today we have 3 farms that hire 80 employees that milk 13,000 cows within 6 miles of my home. Most of these employees do not live in and or around these farms.

I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....
