Rural Iowa needs better broadband access, but that alone won t lead to a revival

Rural Iowa needs better broadband access, but that alone won t lead to a revival Robert G. Riley Jr., Iowa View contributor Kim Reynolds continues commitment to investing in rural communities Replay Video Which comes first, the chicken or the broadband?  Nowadays, people determine where they want to live, and then go look for a job there. Iowa, especially, has made its rural landscape almost unlivable for outsiders economically, culturally, environmentally, politically, racially, socially.  We need a much broader view than just broadband to re-populate rural Iowa with productive residents. Our governor wants to spend $450 million over three years to bring broadband to all Iowans. I applaud this initiative, as one key ingredient to economic revitalization, but it’s not the whole loaf.
