A mass exodus from the Democrats' America

As the Washington Examiner reported this week, the end of the COVID-19 pandemic has done nothing to arrest the trend of people fleeing large cities in liberal coastal states for more pleasant and orderly locales, particularly in the Mountain West and the Sun Belt.

A mixture of unreasonable pandemic restrictions, rising crime, lawlessness, and hostility toward employers has forced this continued urban exodus.

A Census Bureau report released late last month shows which cities and towns have gained population and which have lost it. The data demonstrate that the states and cities that imposed the most draconian COVID-19 restrictions were very likely to lose population. But the fact is that the data are quite similar for the period between 2018 and 2019, when COVID-19 was not a consideration. What towns and cities gaining population generally have in common both before and during COVID-19 is that they generally live under laws made by Republicans. What towns and cities losing population have in common is that they generally live under Democratic rule.

It is hardly a coincidence that all 15 of the 15 fastest-growing cities and towns between July 2020 and July 2021 are in states that Republicans govern: Arizona, Texas, Florida, Tennessee, and Idaho. And 14 out of the 15 fastest-declining cities during the same period were in states that Democrats governed at the time.

people are fleeing democrat run cities. Covid accelerated the exodus. The end of covid has not stemmed the tide. People wanting low taxes and individual freedom are fleeing democrat zones.

 

Maybe democrats can ban their citizens from moving…lol! Heck even in blue states smaller red cities / exurbs can do well by being different and defying lockdowns and mandates and offering local tax and energy incentives.

 

Funny thread. While people have been moving south, into Red States-- for various reasons, with weather and cost of living, being primary among them, in the long term-- the latest Supreme Court Ruling, on abortion, is sure to put the brakes on this trend, at least among those who are still in their reproductive years. Which means the Southern & Red State demographics will only increasingly outpace other parts of the country, in their average age.

Enjoy your prune and oatmeal Confederacy!

 

Would not put it passed them to try and control how people can move.

 

I could be at risk someday as I live in a red area of a blue state that is prosperous now because we defy the state regime a lot.
