[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are 50 big, beautiful United States, all with different things to offer. To say there are “no jobs” in “fly over” states is totally wrong. And, for those of you who think people from other parts of the country should move to the coast for those wonderful job opportunities and “competitive peers,” are you ready for skyrocketing cost of living? How about even more congested traffic? How about increased day care costs because of demand? Some people move AWAY from the coasts exactly for these reasons. [/quote] There are professional jobs in flyover country, of course, but not much depth in their economies, so job hopping is nearly impossible, wage growth is terrible. Locals are so provincial. Sure there are some sophisticated doctors, lawyers and execs ... but again, not much depth. Most folks are dull and slow and myopic.[/quote] And yet their candidate won. Perhaps denigrating them less and trying to speak to the issues that concern them might be a better approach. [/quote] here we go again , sooner or later the khaki pants and meatloaf for dinner crowd will learn ( most likely the hard way ) that we won't all suffer equally from their decision to hitch their wagon to their orange reality tv star . So if 'yet their candidate won' is all they have to show after a year [b]some of us can't help it but mock them for the uncouth and uncivilized fools they've always been .[/b][/quote] That is because you are an ahole. Sometimes my fellow Democrats really embarrass me. [/quote] To the snobby PP above you, I wonder if you would be OK with people mocking nner-city blacks for being uncouth and uncivilized fools. Or is such disdain only reserved for working class whites? [/quote]
