Americans are fleeing blue states in droves over taxes and crime. Illinois leads the pack

For the fourth year in a row, Illinois tops the list of states where Americans are fleeing as residents struggle with high taxes, crime and a soft economy, according to a new report from the moving company Allied Van Lines.

Since 2019, Illinois has consistently had more outbound moves than inbound moves with Allied than any other state, according to the moving company's latest U.S. Migration report.

For the past four years in Illinois, more than 65% of all interstate moves involved residents leaving the state compared to less than 35% of moves that involved people coming to Illinois.

After Illinois, California, New Jersey, Michigan and Pennsylvania round out the list for top outbound states in 2022. All of the top outbound states excluding New Jersey have been at the top of Allied's outbound list since 2017. All five have Democrat governors.

The citizens of our nation continue to self-sort as the gap between the leftist dictators and freedom-lovers becomes turns into a chasm with no bridge between the two in sight.

It’s all according to plan. A majority of those that flee to red states bring their politics with them. Soon, there will be no place to run from the communists.

Ohio is well on it’s way to turning to the left. After the abortion and pot vote in November, it won’t be long.

The problem is these people mostly vote for the Satanists. My very red area is going purple now.

They flee and then vote for the same crap they flee from.

This definitely is worth talking about if Gavin Newsom ever runs for president.

If he wants to talk about how liberalism and his liberal ideology has been so beneficial for his state, and that he wants to see all.of America be like California, let’s have that debate.

If being able to kill offspring in utero is the prime issue for a nation’s voters, that nation isn’t going to make it any more than the children they want to off.

Between the leftists leaving their states (after destroying those areas), and the illegal aliens being distributed throughout red states, we are going to see an influx of leftist voters in reliably conservative districts.

Every liberal without exception follows this one rule:

Of course it is never different.

They will NOT be welcome elsewhere unless they leave the politics that they contributed to in the "F'd up" blue states! Don't bring that cr@p down here!

Dispatching to red states to ruin. “Not how we did it back ‘home’.”. Where you settle IS your home.

Sometimes for the Phoenix to rise from the ashes, you must first reduce it to ashes. I suspect we are quickly sliding into “fall of rome” territory. Bad actors know they have until next november to attack our country and, frankly, all of western civilization. I suspect they are biding their time.

I personally believe 2024 is going to be one for the history books. Kinda like 1939 and December of 1941 Take precautions. Be prepared.

This is how Arizona went blue. Every retired union thug in Chicago moved to Arizona for the winter and election season.

Between demographic losses and out of control immigration there will be no red states at some point and the saturation will be so extensive no amount of the wildest gerrymandering will be able to save the GOP in congress from permanent minority status.

Many of them are bringing their leftist indoctrination with them. They are turning major cities in red states into the same kind of sh*tholes they are fleeing from.

They will vote and vote in the same woke-crap that ruined the cities/states they are leaving.

Don’t worry, Fed.gov will bail-out blue states.

What do you think most Fed.gov agencies and “stimulus” is for?

Dear Social Security Applicant:

We have no record of you having a baby that paid FICA taxes. You will have to wait five more years to get Social Security.

That’s unfair.

No. it is not. Millions of men & women paid big money to support young children who lived to pay tens of thousands of dollars of FICA taxes each into the system, you did not.

People of color who don’t believe in baby murder are now the majority and they don’t feel like subsidizing minority white women.
