NYC residents can flee the city, but where can Americans go if leftists wreck the whole country?

Dear NYCers. Do NOT consider Louisville. We got enough problems with outside agitators.

“...and the sheer obliviousness of pols like Mayor Bill de Blasio and Gov. Andrew Cuomo....”

New Yorkers are disgusted with Cuomo and DiBlasio and desperately want different democrats to vote for.

When they leave NYC they will bring their attitudes and voting habits with them. I was born in Manhattan. My surname traces to a settler in New Netherlands in 1664. I grew up in Queens, my siblings all still live there. I left in 1980, and never looked back.

Even with Guliani the place is crowded, expensive and dirty. If you are wealthy, I suppose that the restaurants and theater and museums can make living there tolerable, but for a middle class schmoo you need twice the income for half the lifestyle.

Get out, and when you leave, vote Republican.

That's the objective. There's big money behind all this (no names, please) chaos. His intention is to force liberal scumbags to disperse into civilized states and cities and bring their scumbag liberal politics with them.

And it's working.

“Some may even return; a reported spike in storage-space business is a sign they will.”

Doubt it. They probably are storing things until they get settled in their new place of residence and until they can pay the expense of moving their belongings.

Jealously is driving this. The NYC “untermensch” are messing up everything. Why? If they can’t have a nice place to live then NOBODY in NYC can have a nice safe place to live. If NYC is a run down mess like it used to be ( pre Giuliani ) it kind of elevates untermensch social status.

Like the fall of Saigon.

Business acquaintance did this and moved to Hilton Head. He votes in the Republican primary now for the most left candidate. He says he doesn't have to vote in the Dem primary because they're all acceptable to him.

Florida is full, don’t go there, I hear that its even sinking in some areas from to much weight.

I left in 1985 for Japan and have never looked back . Here , in “some ways “ , I feel like I am re-living USA 50’s .

I live in Central Jersey, near the shore, about an hour out of NYC. It's a real estate sellers' market here. People are putting in bids for houses 20% over the asking price.

These are New Yorkers fleeing in droves....

[ROCKLOBSTER]

the Upper West Side — now teeming with junkies, the homeless, convicts...

gangs, "the virus"...rats, and RATs...it's all the same thing.

[Savage Beast]

"NYC residents can flee the city, but where can Americans go if leftists wreck the whole country?"

And they will if the people fleeing New York and other leftist hellholes vote in the same policies, in their new locations, that caused them to flee.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Absolutely! Move! But, don’t bring your NY politics, and attitude, with you!

[gogeo]

One likely reason: The virus was but the last straw; New Yorkers are fed up with the shootings and lootings, homelessness on the streets, sub-par online schools, sky-high taxes and the sheer obliviousness of pols like Mayor Bill de Blasio and Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

...and the knowledge that it will only get worse, and quickly.

Will Rogers said, “Some men learn by reading, some learn by observation, and some just have to pee on the electric fence.” Those that leave NYC, then continue to vote Democrat in their new location definitely fall into Will’s last category. Unfortunately that category will be very large, and they will poison the well at their new location. They are simply stuck on stupid.

[RoseofTexas]
