Too bad the north can't bottle our hospitality or our weather
Yeah isnt it the "New New York"? LOL

No wonder people are leaving that state...Come to Texas Come to Nevada..Low taxes, low regulation, low cost of living, More freedom, More Liberty.

Why work more for less when you can work less for more?

I got stuck in a snow storm in Wyoming once, and the wind was so strong, I swear it felt like someone was beating me to death.

Please make the case on why we should not protect our voting rights from fraud?
If someone is hell-bent on committing voter fraud, requiring id won't stop him. Ask the illegals how it's done.

I agree with the OP. People can vote how they want, but think of what you ran from before casting your usual vote.

I have a number of neighbors and friends that have escaped from California, many feel the same way-they don't want their new home to go the way of the craphole they left. Now, that seems pretty typical in the rural areas...the more populated towns, not so sure. They are seen as trendy and were discovered by tourists.
For everyone person like you guys their are 200 sheeple who will vote and support the same failures that caused them to flee from their home states to begin with...

So you are admitting that voter fraud does happen....

Why not fingerprinting?

If a illegal is caught voting, automatic 10 years in prison..

Casinos are highly regulated. And much of the workforce is unionized. But being from lv, you already knew that.

I didn't admit anything. Biometrics? Kinda costly, don't you think?

It's mainly driven by population density, supply and demand. In high population density places, there is limited space and a growing population, which drives up the prices of housing over time. The red states have very low population density compared to blue states.

On the bright side, jobs in blue states tend to pay MUCH higher than those in red states, with the exception being Texas.
