How do people in the sparsely populated red (Republican/conservative) states of the USA feel about high-speed internet becoming available to all citizens in those states?

Do they feel this might lead to a coastalization or globalization of perspective?

Also, as a practical matter regarding physical distances and transport, do people in the red states of the interior feel they are somehow not included in the profits of commerce as much as the coastal states are, and how should we as a country address that?

Pssssssst, they're not that smart.

All "high-speed internet" means to them is more porn without all the buffering.

Fair enough - who wants buffered porn? It's not as if you need high speed internet for this site. And what else do you need? Nothing!

lol as a flyover state resident, we've had high speed internet for decades.

The problem isn't the perspective, it's the internet itself.

@EoT: I don't think the cows they intend to oogle are any much different than coastal or global cows.

@EoT: Those who feel offended should move to the coast and open a fish market. 😉
