John Hinderaker presents in Powerline a recent New York Post poll concluding, “A government that can’t keep its citizens reasonably safe is a failed regime…the poll, released Wednesday by Fontas Advisors/Core Decision Analytics, presented voters with this statement: ‘My family would have a better future if we left New York City permanently.’ The poll found 59% of respondents strongly or somewhat agreed with the statement, while 41% somewhat or strongly disagreed…a 12 percentage-point jump from voters who were asked the same question a year ago. Why do a clear majority of New Yorkers say they would be better off somewhere else… New York has become hellish for the same reason that a number of other cities are increasingly unlivable: the criminal justice system has broken down…A government that can’t keep its citizens reasonably safe is a failed regime”
Driving around in our home state, Florida, we are seeing an inordinate amount of two things. The first are license plates from blue states, especially New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Illinois. States that are hopelessly progressive with all the attendant accoutrements like street crime with gun violence, exorbitant taxes and schools run by teacher unions advancing CRT. In past years, Florida visitors are usually snowbirds who come south to avoid the frigid weather and hazardous driving conditions. Of course, we have our own hazardous driving conditions that are uniquely Floridian—a panoply of elderly drivers on the road who, to use a Led Zeppelin song, are “Dazed and Confused.” They love to drive 10 miles per hour under the posted speed limit…in the left lane!

And don’t California them, neither.
“Let’s also include “Taxacuttes”, home to Harvard and their version of Sitting Bull—Elizabeth “Pocahontas” Warren, since we are also seeing more Massachusetts license plates in Florida.”

Has anyone ever heard of “Taxacuttes?” No, of course not, that’s ridiculous. It is Taxachusetts. Hahahaha!
My girlfriend who is a high school teacher and is being fired because she is unvaxxed had an interview with a Florida school principal Friday. The principal bluntly asked my girlfriend if she intended to bring woke CA politics to Florida.
It’s too bad more red states don’t do this. You red staters have to do as much as you can to keep the blue cancer out of your states. Make the leftists as uncomfortable as possible.
Years ago, Colorado had a popular bumper sticker: “Don’t Californicate Coorado”.
They didn’t listen and the cancer is well established in Denver, the People’s Republic of Boulder, and the Aspen Communist Party.
I live in Florida... these people are like LOCUSTS, totally crashing our state.
Can’t buy a car, can’t buy a house, can’t go anywhere because the roads are snarled. Can’t go out to eat, and lately can’t even order in OR pickup on weekends.
Can’t get a cab, can’t get anyone to do any work. Grocery stores are totally rat-fk’d with constant shortages
Multitudes of a$$wipes are running out of blue $***holes with their hair on fire - turning us into California.
There are basically three types of people leaving democrat hellholes. Conservatives who can’t take it anymore. Democrats who have been red pilled. And democrats who are simply rats fleeing a burning building. When the rats vote, they will still be swayed to vote democrat.
Florida will take care of that themselves by re-electing their Amnesty Senator, who will vote for amnesty AGAIN and give the Democrats a permanent majority everywhere.
I live in SC and we have had an influx of people from NY, NJ, and Ohio. When I encounter them I always tell them it’s a law here that they have to have lived in the state for at least 5 years before they can vote here :0)
South Carolina specializes in electing Bush League Republicans who are Assistant Democrats, so it doesn’t matter that much.
Texas will be blue soon.
TO limit the damage, do the following
Increase residency requirements to be measured in years, not weeks. This will stop carpet bagging.
DO NOT GIVE MASSIVE TAX BREAKS FOR CORPORATIONS! Setting out free milk then complaining about how many stray cats there are is madness.
As above, no special law deals with big corporations. No “arrangements”, not “No go for LEO” spaces. Laws will be enforced as if they are regular citizens.
Keep property taxes in force for all buyers and sellers. No free milk.
Cut welfare assistance.
Painful? Yes. But if you want to keep the strays out make it less appealing for them to go to.
Elon musk has come to Texas in a massive way.
He is definitely not a left winger and is infact their nemisis. He is going to destroy GM and maim ford thereby severely injuring if not exterminating the UAW
SPOT ON. Move to a new state and no voting in LOCAL/State elections for 5 years. Need to stop the transplants from bringing their STUPID ideas with them.
Musk?
Maybe.
All his staff and workers?
Well...
So, “New York” has become a verb ehhh?
What about California? Is it a verb yet?
