I had this conversation with my 17 yr old daughter just this week. (We live in a similar situation here in Wisconsin). She had said she didn't want to stay here, but would probably do so to be near family. I told her it would be worth it to break the cycle - that's the only reason we're here is to see our parents through their elderly years.

So my question: what places are all the smart young ones heading to?

that's always the dilemna.

alot of FR threads on this whole "migration" thing - but you know what, the people who move into their new destination states - bring their liberalism with them (not you). so then you see threads about places like Colorado, and Florida, and North Carolina, etc - becoming more liberal.

the bottom line is - you can run, but you can't hide. wherever you go, the problems you are running from, are coming there too - via the same formula. more people, more demands for government services, more teachers, higher salaries for government workers,higher taxes. the cycle just begins again someplace else.
