We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. And we should call every truth false which was not accompanied by at least one laugh.

Truly! Wouldn’t it be great for America and the American People if all the Socialists inside the borders of our country left and went to live in Socialist countries where, in theory, they’d be happier? And, would it be even greater for us if they took all the sorts that they use as an excuse for Socialism with away from America them?
I, for one, think so. But, sadly, most of them won’t leave by their own choice. If want that return to greatness and unity for America, we’re going to have to make their emigrating the best and only tenable pathway for them.

Bad policies matter, something that Democrats, the primary source of policies which are untenably bad for those who actively contribute to and grow the economy, don’t seem to be able to learn this. Or, since those who can be described as the Makers aren’t normally their constituencies, they don’t care. That’s why a lot of these Makers are voting with their feet.
Now, nationally it’s still a small thing, but one that has increased dramatically. Only about 2.5% of the current US population has emigrated. But that’s a little over double what it was 20 years ago. The numbers of wealth generators, i.e., actual taxpayers, who have internally migrated is far more stunning, and that’s what is actually important.
Which States Are Winning And Loosing (Click Either Image Below To Enlarge)
Losers
Winners
As you can see, people with wealth are leaving Blue States in very expensive droves. Well, expensive to the Leftist governments of those Democrat safezones. Loosing over $55 billion in residents’ Annual Gross Income is no small or easily coped with thing for state governments. And the numbers shown are just personal monies. It doesn’t include all the businesses moving out of Democrat-controlled zone.
And, while this is going to have very large impact on politics, the economic impact and the follow-on effects thereof are going to be more important as we move into the not too distant future. It is not unwarranted to posit that many of the Left-wing areas will go the way of Detroit, which is still on track for effective abandonment, not being able to sustain its infrastructure without the tax monies of those who fled mismanagement and a government antagonistic towards those who generate actual wealth.
Yeah, millions of Americans are voting with their feet. And, their voting against Democrats’ bad ideas and punitive policies.

Go Where You’d Be Happy There Are About 200 Other Countries. Go Find One!
Really! The Leftists and their ever-angry and never-satisfied minorities should just un-ass America and emigrate to some country where they’d be happier – or, at least, less angry and hate-filled – like their celebrities keep promising to do every time their forces are defeated or face defeat.
If they don’t love America – and it’s beyond obvious that they don’t – they should leave it for their own sakes, instead of staying where they’re miserable just to fulfill some idea of destroying America and turning it into what they picture a nation should look and sound like.

Be assured of one thing, My Fellow Americans; the Democrat politicians at both state and federal levels are not so enamored with immigration, legal or otherwise, out of any sense of compassion for these foreigners – especially the ones from the world’s shitholes. No, they’re just fishing for votes and tax dollars just as they always are.
It’s Not About Voter Fraud
This is not to say that these Dems are trying to- or expecting to get noncitizens to vote for them. No, thankfully, that sort of voter fraud is statistically nonexistent.
No, the primary sort of votes the Dems are fishing for is Electoral College votes and seats – hence, votes – in the US House of Representatives. Truthfully, if they want to stay even marginally relevant in the post-2020 future, they have to keep fishing for immigrants. Americans and long-term foreign residents are fleeing the Blue States. The only thing allowing these states to mitigate the effects of this is through foreign immigrants like New York and California do.
But, of course, these Dem politicians are also looking for votes for themselves from their Liberal and Progressive constituencies, constituencies that have proven to be both rabidly fanatical on non-White immigration and prone to extreme responses to perceived waffling on this issue at all.
Well, this is true of White Democrats at least. The Congressional Black Caucus is a bit more specific in their support for immigration from shithole countries.
And, of course, Tax Money
It’s really just simple math – arithmetic really – much of the taxpayers’ monies distributed to the several states is done so based upon population either directly or indirectly. Given that the Dems’ bailiwicks would be in a rather steep population decline, they need immigrants, legal or otherwise, to bolster those numbers, lest they lose out.
And, lest we either forget or simply turn a blind eye, immigrants, mostly illegals, provide the labor force for many businesses that thrive in the urban zones where Democrats also flourish. That brings in state level tax dollars and resultant clout into these Democrat politicians grasp. A perfect example of this being the plethora of nail salons in and around NYC which are owned by Asian legal immigrants who, in turn, “hire” illegal immigrants – some of whom are victims of human trafficking – and keep them essentially enslaved and living in squalid conditions. Another example would be the various sweatshops that proliferate in urban, i.e., Democrat, zones such as NYC or Chicago.
These industries, some of whom can only be competitive against foreign companies through enacting the same horrid conditions as the sweatshops in the Third World, all provide taxes to the states. Frankly, given that, it’s not even surprising that Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-FL 23), former Chair of the DNC, said that illegal immigrants were the backbone of the economy.

Yes, do always remember that, whenever a Democrat politician makes a strong statement in favor of increased immigration, it’s not about compassion; it’s about and only about, self-interest and the interests of the Democrat Party professionals.
