      People may not appreciate the genius of this suggestion. Un-tethering the “rural” and small-town poor from struggle would allow them to consider voting in ways that aren’t strictly about money. In some places, that means voting for cleaner water instead of more gas drilling. Or even human rights over tax breaks.
