I have, and I have had better. I have been through Utah before and I currently have a friend that has been living there the past year and hates the beer there because it is either weak or expensive.

That and massive oil shale and Natural Gas deposits will make the state a power house for decades to come, also long as they keep the destructive nature of big state government at bay, they will do great..

The world doesn't exist to exactly fit some narrative about how things have to be.

That's silly. Real estate values have nothing to do with density per se. Detroit is denser than Salt Lake City and homes on average are valued less in Detroit than Salt Lake City. Some of you really need to read stuff other than Daily Kos.

It's funny how people think I was referring to political ideology. Plenty of GOP controlled states that fair poorly compared to Utah. Notice the things Utah lacks in relation to other states, teenage pregnancy & abortions.

That's what I was getting at not politics per se.
