Too bad the folks in GA have to deal with 1,000 NJ immigrants.

This is how liberalism is being spread throughout the US.

One reason for the shift is the decades long focus on vocational education in many Southern states.

In Alabama - Mercedes plant very near Taladaga,

In South Carolina - (in Upstate) Michelin, Mercedes, BMW, (in midlands) Continental (in Sumter), DuPont (in Camden and Florence), and in (Low Country) Boeing (in North Charleston - not "on" but close), ...

And, these are all "Right to Work" states.

Doubtful the 1K moving from NJ will happen; some might move, but no 1K.

My freshman year at Ga Tech was in a 4 man room. Two Georgia boys, a Mississippi boy and one from New Jersey. By the end of the year we had him settled down and normal. One big factor was that the local girls just loved his crazy accent!

I, myself, made a raid up North to steal one of their cuties as a bride (reparations for the War of Northern Aggression, you know...) Though she will never be e true G.R.I.T (Girls Raised In The South), she is definitely a Southern Belle!

As the bumper sticker says, "I Wasn't Born in the South - but I got here as quick as I could."
