But what about making it better here? What about getting out of the cesspool of opinions about New Mexico and looking for solutions?

We want to hear from you on ideas that go beyond the ‘box’ of our borders – that span the horizons to better our lives in New Mexico. Here are a couple of ideas that are hugely outside the norm and, quite frankly, outside the comfort zone of many:
