Check out the interesting bill at the end. No, not that one! The one from Zimbabwe.
Interesting article on economic regions within the US. Interesting to see how specific types of talent will “pool” in certain areas.
Also interesting in light of the idea some have proposed - such as Robert Kaplan in An Empire Wilderness - that the fate of the US is to crystalize around economic regions.
