are liberal states full of racist rednecks? (salaries, illegal, drug)

the people I hung out with in VT weren't really liberal. but I spent most of my time in the lake champlain area and the northeast kingdom. the outsiders in maine you speak of, are you talking about the somalians in lewiston that are bankrupting the welfare system in the state?
The liberals (mostly from MA, NJ, CT, etc.) you find typically in places like Portland...I love Northern Maine, I can't stand Southern Maine, it's turning into Northern MA.
yup. the spelling is my bad. what does virginia have to do with the conversation?
Not VA, parts of Nothern CA and the PNW that are not liberal, there was a movement to make a new state there...just as many secessionists in Northern Maine want it to be a new state, not necessarily its own country...
Location: I currently exist only in a state of mind. one too complex for geographic location.

I would probably like northern maine too, but it's way too far north. after looking at property taxes in vermont, I won't be moving there either. it's absurd.

Yeah, the high real estate prices and taxes because of all the rich outsiders coming in...it's driving a lot of native VT'ers out of the state.

I think that the US is either going to join with canada and mexico, or the US is going to split up into 3-4 sections.

that's really sad, because where my grandparents live is beautiful. but they pay about $15,000 per year in property taxes. not sure how we will be able to keep that house in the family at those rates.
