Sadly, my home state, the beautiful New Mexico, which used to be a great place to live, in the real world now ranks at the very bottom of a real world chart.

There are no certainties in life, only what we make of it collectively. The glory that was Rome was destroyed when they slowly allowed the Goths and Visigoths to migrate to their cities.

He who does not learn from history is condemned to repeat it.

There is a cycle to all of this. A state like California is Republican for 50 years and becomes the most prosperous state in the country. Then it pivots and the Dems gain control and start looting everything that had been built, starting a steady decline.

The reverse is true in the South. Texas and Georgia were mismanaged by Democratic leaders for 50 years. After a generation of Republican leadership they are now the fast growing states that everyone wants to move to.
