People moving to other states to take advantage of lower wages and property values (after taking advantage of higher wages and selling their homes at a huge profit) will not break our economy. Having a turd in power who has declared war on us could.
But I and many more will stand up and fight and flush that turd.

BTW I work with a couple of red hats who are constantly talking about selling their homes and moving to TN or a similar state in the south. You know what keeps them here...the higher wages. I have no doubt when it's time for them to retire, they will cash out and leave.
