I moved from blue to purple, then red, then redder. It's been an adventure.

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.

I am ethnically Italian. I am culturally San Diegan, aka Mexican. I would have no trouble adjusting.

But like ... Why would you do that?

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Chasing a lower cost of living

And how has that worked out for you?

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Pretty well other than the people that post my address when I piss them them off for calling out their hate speech.

Its a viable strategy.

Get a career going in a blue state when you've got supports to help you make it.

Make a good amount of money, or get a decent wage/salary.

Then transfer that all to a lower cost area to rest on your laurels and skip out on having to pay into support for the next generation.

Its a perfectly conservative thing to do, pulling up the ladder after you've succeeded with it.
