Yeah, this is all sounding like what I want to hear.

Another thing that I have come to live with, that I want to leave behind:

Do you feel that your capitol and major cities are working against you ?

Up here in PA we’re all rural and right-wing as can be. But our major cities are throwing elections to Dems and they continually work against the majority of the landmass.

Example: At Harrisburg session, a bill was passed that required all cities and towns in PA to conform to state carry laws. And in response, Harrisburg, Philly and Pitt rejected the law and continue to operate as if they are another state or even country.

Are you guys united down there more than that ? Does the capital make a habit of sticking it to people in the country ?

If I were ever to move back to the South. I’d move to Murfreesboro, TN or area.Town of 25K. A steady economy. Home to MTSU. Nashville is 60-75 miles to the north. Smokies are an easy drive. Just my 2 cents.

Kentucky is primarily a rural state. Louisville is the biggest city and the only area with a democrat representing us at the federal level and i doubt if that will change. We historically have voted democrat at the local level but that has changed. The Ky senate went red a few years ago and the house has a good chance of doing the same this year. Kentucky will have a big turnout for Trump and that should pull the House with him which will turn the last blue chamber in the south red. It is not so much urban against rural as it is special interests as it is in the rest of the country. There are so many big donors with their hands out trying to dip into the tax payers pocket. Bevin will change some of that. Already put one of the attorney general’s lieutenants in jail for bribery. Lotsa house cleaning to do.
