I used to live in Madison, Wisconsin. Tell me about it.
Do what I did and vote with your feet.
To: GOPsterinMA
I'm 40 and have lived in MA most of my life, with a few years of living elsewhere here and there.
I am seriously considering moving out of this insane anyslum. But isn't that letting them win? Of course, the contagion may be too strong here to do anything but abandon ship.

What happened when a physics professor from ZooMass spoke
about the American flag being "a symbol of terrorism and death and fear and destruction and oppression". It was during a meeting in the People's Republic of Amherst, dealing with "a dispute over how often to fly 29 American flags that a group of veterans and volunteers had hung from lamp posts along the town's main thoroughfares." It was Monday, Sept 10, 2001.

As the poster above said: "Vote with your feet."
It's one thing to fight the good fight. It's another thing entirely to slam your head into a brick wall repeatedly.

LOL Good point. This state is never, ever going to change. I guess with the cancer-causing Harvard infecting the vital organs, it's a lost cause.

Lived in Amherst in the 1980's. When the guy burned himself up on the Town Green-sorry forgot the reason- the town that is struggling with itself.

Let them have the sh*tpile man, at least we'll know where they're located in case we ever have to call in air support.
Huntsville, AL is a magnificent place to live. I was shocked, it didn't fit my idea of Alabama at all.

Best thing my dad did for our family was move to Georgia in 1978. If he had not, I would have grown up in Scranton/Wilkes - Barre Pennsylvania. It was once a great place to live, but I thank my dad every time we go back to visit family.

I have a friend who lived in Cherry Hill, NJ - which he claimed has an excellent school system. Then he moved to Huntsville, Alabama and his kids had to struggle hard in the high school to keep up - all those physicists in town from Werner von Braun onwards.

"It's one thing to fight the good fight. It's another thing entirely to slam your head into a brick wall repeatedly."Much Agreed.
To: GOPsterinMA
This state is disgusting on so many levels.

Sounds like a great location for a live fire military range.
To: Darkwolf377
If you are unhappy in MA (I don't blame you) why not move? You don't want to be 70 years old and think about what you might have done but never got around to doing.

Listen, the people that think Huntsville, AL is the dwelling place of slacked jawed yokels are terribly mistaken.
50 fortune 500 companies have operations in Huntsville. Forbes listed Huntsville as 6th best place in the nation for doing business, and number one in terms of the number of engineers per total employment in 2005. Not to mention the Redstone Arsenal, NASA, Marshall Space Flight Center, etc.
And it's beautiful. I live on a golf course atop a little mountain. I won't say what the houses are going for in this subdivision but the average home is around 10,000 sq ft and this isn't the only one like that by any means.
And hell, Mark McGuire and Sean Hannity got their start here. So I say life is short and you shouldn't waste away in a liberal cesspit - move to Huntsville, AL!

He skipped the "no motored vehicles allowed in the downtown area" ordinance.
And let's not even mention the smoking bans...

Yeah, that's pretty much my attitude now. It's too bad, it really is a great state, lots of variety, and my family and friends are here. But I think I'd rather move to a state where the people, tax policies, and government are, you know, SANE.

I am a few years older than you and live in NJ. The living conditions, the taxes and the people have become unbearable. I can't go to backyard cookout without hearing moon-bat rants about impeaching Bush.
And this is from "main stream" Democrats" I will move to a Red state but not until my kids graduate High School. It's a loosing battle here trying to change the culture. The Democratic Party, particularly in the Trenton Area, is the most incompetent and corrupt organization in the northeast. I couldn't care less about "abandoning ship". They vote these morons in, let them live with the consequences. Me (and my wife) are investigating the Midwest and certain southern states or even big sky country. we have about 5 years to make our decision.
The joke in NJ is that our former Governor only wanted to screw guys whereas our current Governor wants to screw everybody.
