Fleeing blue states

 





"Let me close by using the Ron White saying, 'You can't cure stupid'. Cities and states who keep electing and re-electing Democrats and socialists are just plain crazy. If you want your state or city to end up poor and hollow, vote blue. If you are not careful, your city will end up looking like Minneapolis and your state like Minnesota. #COLDHARDFACT." 



Careful Governor Newsom - you might have some competition. You have been called the best salesman for U-Haul rental trailers in the United States. Why? With so many people (and businesses) leaving California, many of whom are using U-Haul rental trailers, you are a hero with the U-Haul business. But what about California? Is he a hero there? Not quite. Maybe just the opposite.

Wait - what? If Newsom is no longer the U-Haul king of sales, who has replaced him. Ah - a newcomer. Mamdani the socialist in New York is doing a MUCH better job in driving the normal people out of New York City. It has been said that as soon as the election was over, and Mamdani had not yet been sworn it, the floodgates were opened. And for those who have already left - well done. It seems that Mamdani is living out Lady Thatcher's quote - "Socialism is fine until you run out of somebody else's money." And just last week, Mamdani said he would raise real estate taxes by 10% to help pay for his giveaway programs.

But wait - until challenger might have just entered the race. The very strange Abigail Spanberger, the newly minted governor of Virginia has just told the good people of that commonwealth that they are all suckers. Just enough believed here cock and bull story that she was a moderate and will govern as such. Well, she is not and will not govern from the center. The first whiff of socialism by the new governor was enough for Boeing. They are pulling their headquarters out of Crystal City and moving out of Virginia. Why? The good folks at Boeing are not fools.

We cannot forget the new mayor of Seattle, Katie Wison. She is just as much a socialist as Mamdani is. What will happen to Seattle under her watch? It will become even more hollowed out. More crime. More homelessness. It will get ugly, but some have already fled. And speaking of almost forgetting something - how about Chicago? Losing the Bears to Indiana. Because the Illinois business climate is SO VERY bad under Pritzker, as well as the City of Chicago under Johnson, even the rough and tough Bears could not handle it anymore. And we can't ignore the hundreds of businesses which have also fled to greener (or redder) pastures.

Let me close by using the Ron White saying, "You can't cure stupid". Cities and states who keep electing and re-electing Democrats and socialists are just plain crazy. If you want your state or city to end up poor and hollow, vote blue. If you are not careful, your city will end up looking like Minneapolis and your state like Minnesota. #COLDHARDFACT.
