The challenge for rural voters now is that their electoral strength, and even these funding formulas, have not translated into policies that have fixed the deep economic problems they face, from high unemployment to declining wages. And it’s unclear how Mr. Trump will do that for them, either — even if his major infrastructure proposal comes to pass and helps rebuild their roads. If he can’t, rural voters may stray from his party again. In that future, the rural bias in American politics would persist. But Democrats might yet have a chance to blunt its effects.

But it hasn't occurred to you at all, and wouldn't, that some policy takes years to play out. In the case of the 2008 realty bubble, it played out over 20 years. Your comment either reflects ignorance of disingenuousness. Probably both, just based on your posting history. But surely, you must understand that policy changes are not reflected in the quarterly financials when you're talking about the federal government and the global economy? A little complicated for you. as to the future I don't know who will be standing when the music stops but I do know the music is going to stop.
