    Moving from blue to red again was a shock, I sure miss the quality of public services. This place is falling apart unless you live in the richest suburbs.

        I live in Bumfuck, WV. Quite possibly the stupidest state in the Union. Our elected representation perfectly encapsulates the constituents of the state. Moronic, incompetent, and completely unwilling to incite change for a more prosperous future.

        I fucking hate it here. I can’t wait to be able to move.

        I went Michigan, Illinois, Texas, Minnesota, Texas. That last jump was a hard transition. Frankly, I hope we get invaded by Mexico because there’s no other way to fix the state government at this point.

      Preach brother. Had no idea, just wanted to move. Now I’m counting the days to get out of here. More money, better public services, cleaner, and COL isn’t much of an argument at this point. Although it wasn’t a big deal anyway. Rent caught up quick and the only perk is a front yard and backyard I don’t use except to walk the dog. Aside from that, it’s clear how far a few more dollars for state taxes go. Good learning experience. Loved the people, but no thanks to climate. Political and physical.
