Democrats should be very worried that Gen Z is very conservative. It overrides any gains they make in minorities.

And North Carolina will always be a solid red state. Sorry libs

Ah, this must be why so many illegals have been in TX, AZ, FL and other such areas for decades? We Blue States invited them but told them to go where the crops were (originally).

As they educated themselves, they went where the jobs were....in other words, population centers.

Take off those Red Sunglasses. As you well know Reagan signed the last law with Amnesty for millions (many who have large families now)....

Blue States are losing residents in some part because....

1. It's not worth working the land for ag - compared to other places (cold, rocky).
2. Factories are in Mexico or Asia or even low cost Red States (although most of them have gone to Asia).
3. Baby boomers are retiring and wanting to move to year-round warmth
4. Crowded coastal states are often that way because they are a FIRST STOP for immigration. Many of our Grandparents and Great Grandparents settled in the blue state cities. Now that we are established, the kin can decide to move (less of a nuclear large family living in row houses in S. Phila).

But don't you worry about Blue States. MA is the 2nd most densely populated state in the USA - we could use to lose some residents. Meanwhile, our economic output, education, lifespans and every other indicator puts Red States to shame...and has done do for 150+ years.

And you do know the south is way cheaper. It's all relative. 200k in New York isn't as much as you think

Yeah, but those people don't have a mental illness known as liberalism. In the end they win

Life span ,economic output,education??? Massachusetts isnt even in the top 10 states for gdp, the public schools in Boston outside of boston latin are terrible and white people have basically abandoned them, and the life span in mass. isnt that great, its alot closer to texas and florida atc than it is to japan, switzerland, singapore ,etc

You think alot of these rather mediocre stats you are bragging about might be the fact that most blue states are white?

You want real differences in life expectancy ,while black men in D.C. have a life expectancy of 68 years old, white men are projected to live, on average, until age 83. Meanwhile, black women are expected to live nine years fewer than white women.

I doubt it, in real life most people are not as rabidly political as people who post on these forums.

DC wasn't part of Massachusetts the last time I checked. The life expectancy of a black male in Massachusetts is 75.75 years, second highest in the US.

Interesting factoid. Black people live longer in states that have high white populations. If you look at the life expectancy charts, blacks average living above 80 in only 7 or 8 states. These states also happen to be states with the highest white percentage. The states with the shortest life expectancy for blacks , which drop to around 72 , are the states with the highest population of black people.

I got some bob wire fencing that needs tearing down and new put up. Hay needs bailing before the freeze(doing that now with the help of the neighbor, and I help him tomorrow do his) The hard part is getting it into the barn in the cold. Check calves and then go check to see if the water is working in the troughs on both properties. On top of that, firewood is running low.

You want to come stay busy all day and never be bored? The fun starts at night. Spot lighting and killing stuff.
