This billboard shown Friday, May 17, 2013, stands along Interstate 94 in Moorhead, Minn., and can be seen driving into North Dakota. Some Minnesota politicians are unhappy with the message and want the sign taken down.

I wish my governor would be more vocal about what we’re doing here in Michigan. He was on with Cavuto tonight and I don’t think he even mentioned the passage of the RTW law.

The Minnesota Politicians are upset that someone is pointing out the truth. And by reflection upon Minnesota that they are screwing over their citizens on a daily basis.

“The first billboard went up Thursday along Interstate 94 in Moorhead, Minn., which borders Fargo. It reads “North Dakota” on the top line and “Open for Business” on the bottom. “
Wow, how provocative.

N.D. billboard campaign touts business climate, raises hackles in Minnesota Cry me a river.
Are Minnesotans really this thin-skinned?
Hey, I've got an idea. How about if MN creates a less hostile environment for business, like ND is trying to do...

Actually, high-tax states might be looking at building something like the Berlin Wall to stop people from leaving or even seeing somewhere better to live and work. I kick myself for staying in Illinois as long as I did. I just didn’t know better.

Moorhead City Council member Mark Hintermeyer said Friday he considers the message unproductive and confrontational, and wants the sign taken down immediately. He said it could make local and state officials less interested in backing a proposed Red River diversion project that would move water around Fargo and Moorhead in times of serious flooding.
So these guys are so upset over this dopey yellow sign that they are willing to let floodwaters demolish the town.
Again.
Idiots? Imbeciles? Worse. Politicians.

The Rats that run Massachusetts have been having fits for decades because New Hampshire has no sales tax while we have a sky high one.Massachusetts Rats have sued New Hampshire,sued at least one company and has even sent undercover state cops into New Hampshire to catch Massachusetts residents shopping tax free.One of the largest malls in NH is situated *right* on the Mass border,within yards of one of the most heavily traveled roads in the state.Much of that mall's parking lot is literally in Massachusetts while all the stores are in NH.

Boo hoo, tax-happy Minnesota liberals. As ye sow, so shall ye reap. I hope they put some up here in MA.

Minnesota made gay “marriage” a priority. North Dakota the priority is jobs.

Too effing bad, Minnesota. You’re a hardcore leftist state with a hardcore leftist government. Over states want your business base and will eventually get it.

All the productive people left in Minnesota, get the hell out NOW! It is time for that state to die economically.

The vote would go to the Frankenfraud anyway, thanks to Commie SoS (secretary of state, also sack of sh$$) Mark Ritchie. Putting Stalin into practice: It does not matter who votes, it matters who counts the votes.
Productive people, get out of Minnesota, and let it die!

I see that Right to work legislation was introduced in Ohio the other day. The unions are taking a beating in the midwest in recent years.
Minnesota and Illinois are going to be a union utopia at this rate. LOL
