Sure, Richard! (Eye Roll) Like people in the South don't know that you far left liberals on the coasts have ZERO respect for them and could care less about their wants and needs! They look at what you idiots have done to your cities and shake their heads in disbelief. You think they're going to sign up for the same thing where THEY live? LOL Talk about delusional!
Of course we have no respect for many of the people of the south.
Their heritage of slave ownership, treason and racial persecution is nothing but disgusting.
Why should we care about the 'needs and wants' of people who never cared about the 'needs and wants' of anyone else?
Their economy was a shambles until the mid 1970s when massive amounts of money from the north & from the 'left' coasts transformed the south into the 'New South'. Southerners deserve no credit for the present economy of the south. Disney turned northern Florida from a shithole to a modernized economy. The only State that had any viable economy without northern money is Texas - and that's only because they sit on a ocean of oil - they are Saudi Arabia with cowboy boots.
Also, yes, Northern cities have been in decline since manufacturing largely moved over seas. But northerners have adapted pretty well. The the 10 highest mean household incomes are all northern or liberal states (except Virginia), while the lowest 10 mean household incomes are ALL southern states.
