This map from the Regional Plan Association, an urban research institute in New York, shows how the country is really organized — and it's not primarily around individual cities.
Instead, their America 2050 project proposes that we begin to view the country's urban areas not as discrete metropolitan areas but as interconnected "megaregions." Megaregions are areas where large cities and the spaces in between share "interlocking economic systems, shared natural resources and ecosystems, and common transportation systems."

Getting rid of all those pesky hicks in flyover country would greatly simplify the ability of the intellectual elite to rule as they see fit.
In Arizona we are already hearing the Sun Corridor term used.
However, I’m not sure if I would put the Central Valley of CA in with the San Francisco folks...:)
Agenda 21, Urban Development, or whatever name you call it its all the same and this map shows its mentality.
this map shows where the majority of the "stuff for free" people are located

The DNC has the same map with an overlay of voting patterns by precinct. The idea is to drive the affluent and independently minded GOP voters out of their suburban districts into the collectives of the cities, where they can be converted into dependent and reliable communist/democrats.
Well there used to be some cities with inexpensive electric trollies in 30s-40s but GM ended all that, when they gave those cities diesel buses, and all but one city in Ohio sold those trollies.
Those inexpensive infrastructures, today would be cost prohibitive to start from scratch to implement. Look up Dayton, Ohio and their history of electric trolly cars, they have kept theirs up, and they have what all of America could have had at one time.
One problem. Flyover country is where their food comes from. The dummies in those designated areas don't raise food, they only buy it.
Thumbs up on that one! I’ll be forwarding that to the guys upstairs!
Megaregions are areas where large cities and the spaces in between share "interlocking economic systems, shared natural resources and ecosystems, and common transportation systems."Thanks Twotone.
These mega regions are being planned so that the richer surrounds to decaying cities, in other words the suburbs, will be merged to “share” transportation, services, educational units, etc.; in other words they will pick up the tab for the cities. Another income distribution scheme to soak those who escaped the cities in order to finance those very same cities. Beware folks, of what they are trying to do.
Yup. In fact a lot of the included areas are very rural now.
and starve in the process...
Not just their food, all their energy and raw materials too.
The fools in the cities have no clue how dependent they are on the “hicks” they like to mock. The cities would be devastated inside a week if the hicks went on strike. Not so much the other way around...
Looks similar to the predicted fragmentation of the US by that Russian. I laughed at the time. Now I see it materializing.
Exactly dead on. I know that there are some in my county (in the city) that want to eliminate all of the pesky township divisions that stand in the way of the city grabbing money from everyone in the county. Plus us rural township dwellers refuse to save the planet by enacting open burn bans or taking public transportation.
I am suspicious that this is just a scheme aimed at getting the suburban and country folks in the ‘region’ but outside the major cities to subsidize the corruption in the cities.
