The USA will be red within a few election cycles. The Republic will cease to exist and union essentially dissolved as designed by the Constitution. The writing was on the wall when the GOP decided to sit out every single day President Trump is in office. That and the fact that the swamp will never be drained and wall never built. Unless we have a late rally, that is what I see as dark days ahead.

NY state is probably 3d behind OH and PA in sending workers to my Atlanta. It seems to be mostly Upstate Rochester, Buffalo type people; not NYC people.

These people are both working class, lower middle and middle middle ... $30,000 to 120,000 mostly. I don’t rub shoulders with the rich much; so don’t know where they move.

"...people are fleeing in droves, with 1.2 million New Yorkers leaving since 2010."

I saw a migration map of the US recently. It showed that most New York transplants are going to Florida and California. By a wide margin.

Taxes will increase until the economy improves.

Cordon them off, let em starve off, then remove the dead filth.

After AOC moves to Puerto Rico, we need to give it back to Spain.
