Liberals, please stay put. You've made a mess in Blue States, you disdain the policies which make Red States so attractive, so why are you moving to Red States and then voting in the same fashion which led to your Blue States turning to crap? Learn from your betters - if you like Red States and find them appealing, then vote like the locals have voted and keep Red States attractive. Click the link and check out their State maps to see how many liberals are working to ruin your state.

Over the last few decades, residents of many traditionally liberal states have moved to states that were once more conservative. And this pattern has played an important role in helping the Democratic Party win the last two presidential elections and four of the last six. The growth of the Latino population and the social liberalism of the millennial generation may receive more attention, but the growing diaspora of blue-state America matters as well.

The blue diaspora has helped offset the fact that many of the nation’s fastest-growing states are traditionally Republican. You can think of it as a kind of race. . .

The changes in purple North Carolina (where the blue-born population is up an astounding 41 percent since 2000) and Georgia (30 percent) are fairly well-known. Perhaps not as well-known is the migration of blue-staters to South Carolina (39 percent), Utah (34 percent) and Idaho (30 percent). The Southeast and the interior West have become some of the most popular new destinations for American movers. . . .

It’s no accident that the places in once-red states where migrants have tended to settle — like the Virginia suburbs of Washington, the Research Triangle of North Carolina and the Denver metro area — are the places that have allowed Democrats to overcome huge deficits elsewhere in those states. Many of these migrants are Northeastern Democrats.

Colorado has gained twice as many migrants from blue states as from red since 2000, and blue-state expats now make up 12 percent of the population. In North Carolina, blue migration is occurring four times as quickly as migration from red states, and blue-state natives now account for 16 percent of the North Carolina population. (In each case, locally born residents still make up the majority.)
Interesting that there aren't as many Red State citizens fleeing their states as Blue Staters. I suppose people in Red States like the life and society that they've created for themselves and so see no need to flee. Blue Staters though are part of a massive wave of people fleeing Blue States because they simply can't stomach what they've created there.

Too bad liberals aren't smart enough to realize that "doing the same thing over and over again, won't transform failure into success THIS TIME." Too bad also that good people have to suffer due to liberal inability to realize this simple truth.
 
To stop the spread of Liberal Locusts, a system of internal borders might be needed. Liberals would need a visa to move from one state to another. That could work at keeping them stewing in the messes they've created. What do you think?
 
Quiz time...

Is this a Red state or a Blue state? :dunno:
