What’s really the surprise is that a third of moves are INTO Michigan. Must be self-flagellating liberal loons moving in...

It is news because with global warming, Michigan is suppose to become a tropical paradise that vacationers from florida will flock to when global warming turns the pitiful portions of the state not submerged by the melting ice caps into desert.

What sucks is these idiots move to Red states in the South, SW and West and they turn them into bankrupt Lib sewers. Look at the states California Libs ruined. NC is becoming NJ south. NH has been ruined. S. Florida ruined. Colorado has almost been ruined. AZ is becoming crap with Juan McCcain.

And which party runs Michigan, friends? Not to mention New Jersey, the State a clear majority of adults want to leave. The party that’s now in power in Washington? Oh, my!

Fricking liberals move out of their hellholes but then they demand the same services and crap that caused them to runaway in the first place! IDIOTS!

Illegal alien and welfare magnet? States with great welfare program attract flies like dog poop. they also attract the “homeless” aka bums.

Amen to that - I have a job, so I am staying in NY for now, but my leftist-liberal relatives have all moved to AZ, GA and NC!

I love to point out to them the irony that they had to flee NY exactly because of the policies they love so much, but it never seems to sink in.

New Jersey has a moving out tax to trap people in a corrupt state. I wonder if Michigan has one and if not, why the hell have they not considered that form of taxation. They seemed to have taxed everything else....

I’ll make this comment and analysis...by 2030...the population currently of Michigan...will be half of what it is today. There will be entire regions of space within forty miles of Detroit that are simply empty (you can stand on a street corner and look as far as the eye can see...and not see a human).

And they will tax more. err....raise fees. Seems that is not a tax. This state is screwed. I choose to remain because I cannot give up my weekend vacations to my cottage. As my entire industry leaves, I’ll be golden in 2013 when the economy comes back. At least I can float on the water and there will be less people to get in my way.

Pretty sweet our vehicle registration fees are going up 50%. sarc

Interesting, I lived in the state from 1987 through 1991 before escaping to the South. Mind you not as far as Dixie but far enough to be safe from the effects of Michigan. Only problem is, here in OHIO, I am not so sure we are on the same path as Michigan only at a slower rate....

If they're heading south, they better leave their voting habits behind.

Odd. they list New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York as having among the highest outbound proportions. They also list Delaware as not being mid-Atlantic. Then they say that the Mid-Atlantic has the highest inbound proportion. These states make up the Mid-Atlantic states!

(Some people regard Maryland as Mid-Atlantic, others regard it as having been a southern colony, along with VA, NC, SC, and GA.)

Geographic illiteracy on the part of the author, who just looked at a map and decided that states midway down the US Atlantic coast were “Mid-Atlantic.”
