FWIW, we moved from NY to TX in 2010. There’s things we miss (family, the lakes, etc.) but absolutely love it here. No personal income tax, a sense of freedom (there’s no FOID in TX), moderate winters, good schools, a rational State Government and I don’t feel like an outsider for being Conservative. I can easily find like minded people who love their God and their country.
The remaining free states need to change their form of representation to stop the big cities from perverting the laws statewide.
All of the free states are in danger now and being taken over by Californians and New Yorkers.
