Boston for sure. NYC I would say only with the Hipsters. The born/raised New Yorker does not look down at anyone. They usually come from grittier times.

Give us all the bad press they can. We have enough people here now. That is why there is no jobs.
Too many people. There is a limit to how much a local economy can offer the masses.

Look at Orlando. They gained over 1 million new people in the past 10-15 years. That is 1,000,000.00.
I can assure you that no where near that amount of jobs have been created, especially since the recession which is still not over.

Really?

Maybe you don't call that "looking down", but you sure live on a high horse most of the time! LOLOL

Remember those comments with: "move if you don't like it here", which is something Marie Antoinette would say...you know, when you leave the details out, and assume people can just "up & go!"

You can add Hypocrisy to your resume now!

I can assure you that there are at least 4 million people here (at least), who would rather be elsewhere and only because they too assumed the grass was greener!

To you the curb is high. Right. If you don't like something take it back, dump it or change it.
Don't live with sorrows.

There is NOTHING holding ANYONE anywhere. All things are possible if you really want them to be.

They got here with no problem so they should be able to go back to where they came from.

No money? Get a part time job and use it to pay for the moving truck or dump everything except a suitcase, get in your car and go.

Own a house you paid too much for? Walk away or sell it. Take the loss and go on with life.

Family here? Take them with you. If they don't want to go too bad. Move on.

They wanted to be here, they strived to get here. Now they can strive to go elsewhere.
