Many natives here consider Fort Wayne, Indiana and Erie, Pennsylvania to be third world countries. Not that they have ever been there or would consider it.
I live in L.A. and I hear it all the time too. They're ridiculous. Some of them are dirt poor living in LA, cramped three to a two bedroom yet they think they're better than someone who owns their own home and is building a nest egg in Iowa. They don't get that huge swaths of the country has developed. It's no longer LA NYC or bust.
And hopefully, those of us who see the Democrats for what they are will broadcast that little tantrum at every opportunity.

And thank you, Master Tominftl, for the proof of further detachment from reality among the Democrats' Kiddie Korps.

Yah. I've known a few New Yorkers who viewed most of the rest of the country as existing to serve NYC. Insular, narrow-minded "elites."
What an elitist snob! Good gravy. This is why the majority of the American people voted for Trump. They were tired of coastal elites constantly running their lives and grinding them at every turn. I mean you are the epitome of this ridiculous mentality of coastal people who think that middle America is some yee haw country. Well the rest of the country has developed. It's no longer NYC or LA or bust. Several states in the middle of the country aren't backwoods.
Do you not get that the coastal liberal elite ARE the establishment. That you support it and your views are gross to the people of America?
This is a result because of YOU.
You can do whatever you want if you stop telling the coast how to live and stop taking out tax dollars. We contribute more than we get back. Blue states contribute more tax dollars than they receive. Red states take more than they contribute. We are tired of paying for you. Go to school, get a job and support yourselves and stop telling coastal people how to live their lives. Go to church seven days a week, we don't care, just leave us alone.
Newsflash, I understand how they feel. And if it becomes clear that Hillary won the popular vote, all the more so. The West Coast, the Northeast, those areas are strong, educated, they think middle America is ridiculous and backward. I think it too. At this point, with this country this polarized, I would prefer the country split. I don't want to subsidize red states anymore. Blue states always give more federal dollars than they receive while red states take more than they contribute. So split the country. I have no use for rural America.

I knew a New York transplant who moved to small town Pennsylvania and sneered at us...called us "ignorant fahmah's". No "thee-AY-tuh". No "deli-KA-tessen". Where does the food in the "deli-KA-tessen" come from?

How silly.
North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, alone have far more coast than California.
And people are moving to these places from the the places you mention because of the great quality of life.

This is why I'm so happy CA got neutered last night. Many libs and illegals there think they can run the country through intimidation and threats and are learning that doesn't work with Americans. Elitists in San Francisco are in a daze. Living in this ultra liberal state, I'm loving this.

Lots of people on the coasts are out of touch with the rest of America.
They are more likely to visit France or England than those American cities
People also aren't aware how other cities have developed .
I was born in LA but have an open mind and have travelled to other cities , not just New York or San Francisco
