* To provide more realistic data on minority communities, the table excludes data from states where blacks make up less than 5% of the state population.
★Based on a one-tailed T-test, overall black and Latino unemployment is significantly higher in states on the left column (p = 0.01). There is no significant difference for white unemployment between the states in the left and right columns (p = 0.30).
Did they flee another state or a foreign country?
How do they know it’s the ‘liberals’ that are fleeing?..................
Coloradans were very independent. More libertarian than conservative. So as the liberals moved in they just ignored them until it was too late to do anything.
I suspect that there is a large group of Floridians that is truly conservative and is more actively engaging with the incoming liberals. Hopefully they will change some minds, and if not, put in place laws to keep the liberals at bay.
Of course there're always the swamps. Loads of liberals can be lured into the swamps on eco-vacations that end with alligators and pythons having full stomachs.
“As people flee their oppressive liberal states to Florida, will they turn their new home into exactly what they left behind?”
________________________________________
Unfortunately, I don’t think Florida as it is will survive. People who are sick with liberal ideas find they don’t want to live with the results and yet when they get to a healthy environment, find it’s not to their exact taste and proceed to infect it with their liberal ideas.
Yep. The homogenizing of America continues apace. Soon, we’ll be VIOLET. Or is that VIOLENT as we confront one another?
The Northeasterners that relocated to Flahrida are some of the worst, most messed up, people I have ever met in all my life! Then again, a few were an absolute joy.
The problem is, after the LIEberal Yankee immigrants turn Flori-duh into a LIEberal Damn Yankee state, where are we gonna go to escape the LIEberals?
