This is a massive revelation.



This trend will continue for the foreseeable future.

Not surprising Louisiana can’t capitalize on this movement and instead allow money to move out. Such a backwards state

You would think at some point they would clue in. Kathy Hokul is begging people to return, do she can take their money. Good luck with that. When millionaires were leaving just a couple of years ago, she said good riddance

That’s why the state system is great. We need less federal government intervention and let the states compete.

Alabama has Huntsville, their saving grace. Tennessee has several good cities. TX and FL are states with great priorities.

The worst of the bunch "Blue" are liberal hellholes trying to destroy the country, starting with their own citizens.

Our Founding Fathers viewed each state as a Petrie Dish… with each being able to test laws to see which states created the best outcomes.

The results of the little Socialist verse Capitalist experiment are evident… with people and companies voting with their feet.

The real question is, will the blue states learn from their mistakes and pivot to more successful outcomes???

Dems are in their death throes. Pretty obvious to anyone not blinded by emotion.

Not all money is good money. The progs that come with that money are not worth the profit.

My brother-in-law goes to Louisiana to hunt, fish and get into nature. He has a friend that owns land and shows him a good time. It's certain cities/areas that pull it down along with some of their politicians.

Taking in this money comes at a cost. Loss of local culture and natural habitat.

I'm hoping most of them are coming our way with good intentions.

I hope they're willing to come and accept our way of life and culture ... and not drag any libtarded bullshite along with them.

Once they consume all of their resources guess where they are going.

Don't get excited. They're bringing their voting habits with them.
