Based on the Blue to Red migration incentives incorporated in the tax-bill by the SALT and mortgage deduction caps at least one million more homes will be built in Red states simply due to migration from blue states. Most new factories will also be built in Red States due to right to work laws. So, while growth will be nationwide it will be greater in red states than blue states. Computing GDP does not include deserted Blue state structures, only new construction. So, the process of discovery will result in cutting Blue state services and state/local employment which is subtracted from GDP so net growth rates will be slightly lower than expected. The collapse of NY housing prices has already begun, it started in Sept/Oct of last year.
