Why is drawing a boundary around a geographic region any more fair than drawing a boundary around a corporation? Either way you have a group of people who benefit and a group that does not. If you want to be part of the group that benefits from, say, the Google brand, you don't even have to move. All you have to do it buy Google stock.

You know, when posting rhetorical questions, you should really check to see if it’s not answered in the post you’re replying to.

Thanks for explaining what you didn't like about my comment rather than just downvoting it. I really do appreciate that.

For the record and FWIW, it wasn't intended to be a rhetorical question, and I didn't think the comment I was responding to answered it, at least not adequately. But it's probably not worth quibbling over at this point.
