It’s called “Marxism”.
Karl Marx HATED the middle class. He wanted their blood flowing the streets.
So the middle class is moving out of these Marxist areas to places where capitalism still lives.
And once those middle classers get there, the vote for liberal Marxists thereby compounding the problem....
Liberals no! Stay in the state your ruined!
The sum of the values in circulation can clearly not be augmented by any change in their distribution, any more than the quantity of the precious metals in a country by a Jew selling a Queen Anne’s farthing for a guinea.

So ..... who did Karl Marx hate?
In the movie White Christmas, Davis (Danny Kaye) tells Wallace (Bing Crosby) that “it would be easier to find a Democrat [in Vermont]” than to find a song & dance team like themselves. Now you can’t find a Republican in Vermont — think Howard Dean as its governor.
And that’s the problem: leftist crap weasels ruin the states in which they live with unbearable taxes, government spending, and regulations, and then move on to free states to repeat the process.
Yeah, but the problem also is the trash leftists all move in these days and start to turn everything into California.
Not a joke...
I agree.

“Why are Americans by and large moving away from economic opportunity rather than toward it?” he asks.
Because they are seeing tax slavery for what it is. In NJ you can own a very average home free & clear, and pay $600+ per month in property taxes for the privilege of living here (mostly for the public schools, which are not good). When your GRANDchildren are no loger in the schools, the state will freeze your property taxes - at $600+ per month. One of our former governors admitted that without illegal immigration, we lost population (and we lost an electoral vote to confirm that). The illegals are immediately on the dole, and the dwindling number of taxpayers get the bill. Since Americans don’t have families anymore, why would one live in an area where you pay so much for others’ kids?
The author mentions “low-skill immigrants”; here in NJ most are illegal, and they contribute nothing. If anyone thought they would save Social Security, note the smallest increase in years at a time when we’ve never had more illegals in this country; they know they are imported to pay for retired Americans, and they ain’t playing ball (while they continue to breed a next generation that Americans won’t).
It’s not all about money. Many of us have moved to states with less regulation.
Many of them are public sector union retirees - teachers, etc - who've moved to more favorable climes (weather-wise/tax-wise) while collecting their generous government pensions from places like Illinois (where the state is financially treading water; where tax rates are driving people and business to places like Texas, as they flee higher taxes imposed by states run by liberals, who have run their economies into the ground).
Texas: lower taxes, less regulation and lawsuit abuse reform = business friendly government.
Same sh*t happened here in Virginia. The scum from DC and Maryland determined their work was done and proceeded to infest this state .. and here we are, with all-but-certain Gov-elect Terry McAuliffe.
I didn’t quite make it that far. I moved to Oklahoma for it’s best in the nation homeschool laws. Texas would be my next choice. In all fairness to Texas, I have to go there to make enough money.
Go after the sponsors of your press that keep working against those opposing Democrats. They cover and advertise for them free and give the equivalent of at least tens of billions a year to the Democrat party.
Go after them in letters and email.
Cut off they food and make them starve till the free press is a unbiased press.
Seriously considering relocating out of Connecticut within the year. Maybe North Carolina or farther south.
“Yeah, but the problem also is the trash leftists all move in these days and start to turn everything into California. Not a joke...”
Nope, no joke for sure. Just look at Colorado. Once a perfectly good conservative stat. Now, a liberal enclave. Others to follow; Nevada, New Mexico, Montana, others. Even Texas is seeing a purpling hue creeping into our state. What to do? Spend more time helping them see the truth conservatism works, liberalism doesn’t.
Ditto!
