I agree that some states are still a lot better than Colorado for various reasons but the way this agenda is going, how long until we're out of states to go to?

Don't know the answer to that one. But, at 55 I'm more on the way out than on the way in. I don't see things changing here drastically before I'm gone. I feel sorry for my kids and yours, though. It's pretty sad if you think about it. A few more generations and they won't even know what the "old country" was like. This new way of life will be the norm and they won't have anything to compare it to. Maybe that's a good thing, though...because remembering what the country was like when I was growing up and seeing what it is now is pretty depressing.Quote:

I used to have the same plan and thought process, then I had kids... I may have been completely happy and content without kids, but now that I have kids, I'm much happier. Sorry for the derail...Quote:

Google (or Bing,DuckDuckGo, Etc.) the following: "demographic shift in the United States". I'd post a single link but everyone has their trusted source and I'm sure I'd run afoul of someone so pick your favorite link from the list that search will yield.Quote:

Not only did I not like kids before I had them, I hated them, now I love'em. With that said, I don't know that I'd have kids at 44 either. Not trying to convince you, just friendly conversation, and pointing out how I went from one extreme to the other.Quote:

At some point, and it looks like the timeline is getting pretty short, all urban centers will be on the liberal path/decline regardless of state. Those who cling to guns, or God, or integrity, or free market or, maybe a little later, even libertarian principles, will be the scourge of the urban centers. The only hope is that it goes slow enough that those people can figure out how to get out before rock bottom comes. Then the rats in the cities can tear each other apart and a new start might be an option...but I doubt it.
