I don’t think people are wishing for ill for others, just pointing out that if you live in a state where your skills are not needed, and 10 percent of the workforce is competing with you for jobs, you would be better off to move to another state.

And since this is 2008, not 1800, I hardly think there is any real economic impediment to moving to a new state. You just hop in your car and drive. Or you scrape together $100 bucks and get on the train.

Of course, if you have unemployment insurance and you get government assistance in your current state, that would keep you from moving to a state that won’t give new residents stuff.

They would be better off voting for new government which would stop discouraging investment in the state.

Where do you live? How long do you think $100.00 lasts? Where will your children go to school? How will you pay for food. This just hop in you car and leave nonsense...is ridiculous. As for government ‘benefits’ like unemployment. If you are unemployed and eligible for such benefits and need to feed your family, you’re going to need take them. You want people to starve? Some of you must live in your parent’s basements and not in the real world. You guys who are bashing the Mid West should be quiet. The Mid West has dealt with hard times for a while. They are a tough group. I wonder how the rest of you will fare because if you think only the Mid West will affected in this downturn, you are unfortunately mistaken.
