Democrats are starting to remind me of a move I saw about vampires with Ethan Hawke. As everyone became vampires, and there were almost no living souls left, the supply of blood became disastrously low. They were willing to do anything to keep from having to face up to the fact that their very existence was untenable. The economic model sure is similar, if nothing else.
Bob Hope nailed it in 1940 regarding zombies and Democrats:
A classic for sure.
Excellent analogy.
The goose that lays the golden eggs is not yet dead, but it is stumbling around, staggering badly.
Its only refuge is to flee the state altogether, simply abandoning whatever assets still remain there that cannot be moved.
Economic refugees all.
But unfortunately, some of them did not learn their lesson, and try to bring the very culture that forced their flight in the first place with them.
See what has happened to Oregon, Washington state and even Idaho, and even now negatively affects Arizona and Nevada.
