If they could only be more like conservative strongholds like... Livingston parish?


People are leaving the big cities of California and NY for more conservative areas of Florida and Texas.

I’m not surprised you chose that piss poor argument, though.

I blame all politicians for not having enough balls to stand up for individual responsibility and personal choices.

All politicians, both sides, have clearly displayed thaT power, above all else, is their motivation.

I am not an economics expert.
But my personal experience it people are not starving or miserable.
I understand my location and field of employment is not everyone's.
But I think much of the "misery" is purposely magnified by media.

Did you retweet Paul Krugman when he said a Trump presidency would be horrible for the stock market?

Yep, they’re moving to conservative strongholds like Austin.

No one from California is moving to rural Texas which is where you’ll find the majority of conservatives in Texas. While I would agree that a lot of the ones moving here lean conservative, they are not moving to conservative areas.

Mr. Lake Charles has spoken. Economic misery doesn’t exist in the US because he doesn’t see it in his bubble of 80k people.

The policies that govern the businesses in the state are much more conservative and business friendly. To act like there is rural Texas and 6th street is disingenuous and another shitty argument on your part. The people living north of Dallas, north of Houston, in Fort Worth, and many suburbs throughout the street are mostly conservative or right leaning moderates.

Your style of only talking about the extremes of LP and Austin shows you’re either arguing just to argue, or you’re clueless.

No. We're not.

Journalism is dead in this country. And the main stream infotainment media needs its arse whipped.

You’re going to cite a poll that took off the first 5 years of the Obama presidency and showed race relations fell 12 points during his presidency?

It is extremely liberal in urban centers and gets more conservative the further out you get. I’ve lived in Dallas and Austin and I’ve worked in both cities as well as the suburbs out to rural towns outside of Dallas.

People moving in from out of state, especially California, are moving mostly into the cities and home prices reflect it. These people are cutting their housing costs in half and getting twice the house. M streets and the surrounding area of Dallas as well as Tarrytown and other areas close to downtown Austin are full of them, especially the tear down rebuild jobs.

Austin has absolutely blown up the last 10+ years and it’s because of transplants moving to Austin, not pflugerville.

Almost every city in the country over 150k is left leaning.
