Over the past few decades, the United States has undergone "the Big Sort," the clumping of the electorate into demographically, professionally and politically homogeneous neighborhoods. Hillary Clinton voters have their ZIP codes, and Donald Trump voters theirs, and ever more rarely do...

Fundamental change. Don't you love it?

BTW, this story is from the Chicago Tribune, not the Compost.

Sure you can have all those free state goodies. You just have to pay for them.

A cheesecake to the people who crafted the most recent Fed tax law.

For decades, high-tax states with a lot of wealthy residents enjoyed a hefty subsidy from the rest of America.

This is patently false.

Every analysis you'll read about Federal tax revenues and expenditures by state will show that these high-tax "blue" states pay far more in Federal taxes than they get in Federal spending. There are a lot of reasons for that, but anyone who suggest that these "blue" states are being subsidized by the rest of America has no idea what they're talking about.

Liberals don't care about immigrants.

What they care about is illegal immigrants work for pennies. A steady supply of new illegals keeps them desperate and compliant.

They use taxpayer money to supplement wages of their new slave class. In this way individually they can pay low wages and everyone collectively carries the burden of welfare programs.

Since they can't bring people in chains anymore, they created a new system of slavery which makes liberals look like champions of immigrants.

It's exploitation of the desperate disguised as liberal compassion.
