Americans continue to flee the evils of liberalism

 Roger Simon:

According to Clay Travis on Dec. 22’s Clay Travis-Buck Sexton Radio Show, the blue states are hemorrhaging people. From the transcript:

“And they came out with the data on, the Census data for 2021, and—this is interesting—New York was the number one state to lose population. Around 320,000 New Yorkers bailed on the state. California was the second biggest loser, around us 250K or so, followed by Illinois.

“When you add in others like Michigan, about a million have departed blue states in 2021.”

Travis continued: “I want to build on this in a moment, but these are the states that added population: Texas, Florida, Arizona, North Carolina, Georgia, South Carolina, Utah, Tennessee, Idaho, and Nevada. Almost all of those states red states. What is going on here with the great sorting of America?”

What, indeed? This exodus from blue states—although obviously not quite as perilous as the flight from Egypt—has been going on for years and has its own motivations that may not come directly from Yahweh but have their own spiritual, or at least moral, component—a desire to live openly in harmony with your views.
...

“And so as a result been a lot of parents and a lot of families that have moved here. And what I see is New York, California, and Illinois, most commonly, Chicago area is where people are bailing on Illinois, and I asked ’em why they came here, and they all say, to a person, man and woman, they moved because they were finally fed up with the politics and COVID was the tipping point.”
...

It used to be that California, New York, and Illinois were places of opportunity.  That no longer appears to be the case.  They are places of high cost of living and limited opportunity.  Liberalism does that to a community.
