I know supply and demand, I grew up in California four miles from the beach, average middle class can not afford to buy a home there anymore at least not without help. My son lived there for awhile and paid $1,600 a month for a one bedroom apartment. We own a business, so I’m aware of supply and demand.

Don't you live in some liberal hellhole like Minnesota?

The blue states are our successful economic powerhouses.

Some people move because they can’t afford to live there anymore...because of all the successful capitalism. Simple supply and demand drives housing prices up because so many people want to live there.
If it is so successful why didn’t they benefit from it enough to stay there?

Yep, I love small Republican cities lots and lots of supply and very little demand. Uncrowded stores, don't have to be around nasty, dirty, rude people all day and every day.

I think lots and lots of supply and very little demand is wonderful myself.

Thanks to high-speed internet, a vast majority of non-goods related employment can be done anywhere in the world.

What is appealing about being in COVID-19 petri-dish big cities that have skyrocketing issues with crime, rampant drug use because people are stressed, massive unemployment.

How many on welfare and resided in public housing in Brooklyn? How many poor, single mothers have children they couldn't afford in Brooklyn?

One couldn't pay me to be subjected to the culture of Brooklyn.

Humorously, the cities and places that most closely resemble feudal society are these blue city dystopias.

Are you asking why they are not actually communist and not everyone benefits equally?

The big successful cities are the crucibles of capitalism. There are winners and losers. Someone with more passion, drive, and ability could come along and effectively take your place in the local economy.

You either compete, move, or end up on the street.

This is not because of anything “left” in nature. Pure economic forces. And ironically what rural red America claims to love...while getting more from the feds than blue states and having higher percentages of kids qualifying for free lunches and other sad measures.

And why would they do that if red states are so bad - that is your thread title after all? Makes no sense whatsoever if they think of "red people" like you do. Your whole thread postulation is a classic bridge dweller move.

But WI is currently a liberal hellhole, no? And you live in a city, I'm guessing. Madison, perhaps?

Maybe you should move to Alabama is or Arkansas. Or to TN. I believe you're a teacher(?). These states desperately need better schools and teachers. I know, because I live here. Mind you, you'd have to accept a MUCH lower salary than what you're probably used to.
