NEOSHO, Mo. —
I can’t help wondering why our governor just spent $86 million on broadband Internet access for “rural” Missouri in the northern 59 counties that include the cities of St. Louis, Jefferson City, Columbia and Kansas City.
Why not the southern half of the state including Springfield and Joplin? All I can figure is that the southern half of Missouri is not “rural” enough or it’s just “politics as usual.”
