Also I know some of their projects focused on agricultural regions and farming. Conflicted with their support for small farms.

For MW/NE revitalization I'm thinking: A) Infrastructure, B) more college(s), C) pro-density, and maybe D) export promotion zones?

I like A, C, and D here, not so sure about B but you said that approach worked for tech policies so maybe

Midwest has anomalously low % of white people with college degrees. Also, yeah, universities can boost tech industry.

Right, I think it's just one piece of the puzzle. Also I'd consider Texas-style policies to attract businesses.

What sort of policies are these? I'm more interested in what can be done to generate new businesses vs attract existing ones...
