[quote=Anonymous][quote]So it turns out you can get richer simply by moving to where people are poorer. That is horrifying. And some might find it insensitive to praise the virtues of living a middle-class life in a region beset by deindustrialization and poverty, where the low cost of living is enabled, in part, by the difficulty so many have in scratching out a living.[/quote] I think she is forgetting that big cities have poverty too. I'd wager it's easier to be a fast food worker in <I-forgot-the-name>, Indiana than DC. We are planning to leave the area in a year or two because we hate the crowds and stress and want to be closer to family. The fact that our purchasing power will increase even if our income goes down is just icing on the cake. But you all should stay here.[/quote]
