so why is it happening? how do you know he’s wrong? i know you want him to be wrong, but what evidence do you have that he’s wrong?

if it’s weather, why aren’t people moving to southern california?

people are moving there in massive numbers, because they like what he’s doing.

yes it was his kids.

i’m 2008, there were 700,000 more registered democrats. Desantis’ children single-handedly overcame that. you figured it out.

Where’d we find you, anyway? Scotland Yard?

Don’t worry
DeathSantis is offering a bonus to any policeman who has proved he doesn’t believe rules apply to him by losing their job over COVID

dear pete

...if he or she is going to Florida because he/she was fired or left their job over the vaccine mandate...it's because the rules applied to them...they had a choice, made the choice that they felt was best for them...you seem to have a sick and twisted desire to force them to get injected with something they don't want to be injected with....I hope they flourish in Florida

Florida has pretty much been wide open for business (more than any other state) yet they have the lowest number of cases of this manufactured Covid crisis 🤔

Florida has had some really, really terrible months. their total death rate since the beginning, is around tenth? but you need to consider that they have one of the highest elderly populations if any state, so you need to be careful just comparing state to state.

But huge numbers of people are moving there, which means they’re doing something right. Liberals like to say people are only moving there because if the weather, and i always ask “why are t people
moving to southern California which also has nice weather”, and i’ve never gotten a response. they pretend they didn’t hear the question.

Do you do any research? here are the top 10 states that people moved from and per capta is not factored in 2019 this is what actual evidence looks like .. you should try it ...

#1. New York

#2. Georgia
- Moved from Georgia to Florida in 2019: 49,681

#3. Pennsylvania

“They'll move to Florida because it's so affordable,”

People have always cited the fact Florida has no state income tax, lower property taxes and lower cost of living.

no one But Ron is saying they are escape coronavirus restrictions, lawlessness...

it's pretty clear over half the people are from red states so it's not hard to think they are already a republican Voter


And with this majority so seems close to 45\55 split i bet you a 100 bucks they will gerrymander districts so there will be no dem majority or competitive districts .. Just like NC did last week and that sytes 50\50

first, 2019 is old data.

second, you yourself said people
move there because it’s affordable. and i’m sorry to break this to you, that wasn’t an accident. being affordable is what happens when you have smart, effective leaders.

you’re disproving ron by pointing to 2019 data? wayne, take off your damn tin foil hat. there was no epidemic in 2019. good lord!

You want to know why people move to Florida & not California?
Look at the state income tax for 1
Same reason I LOVE the Raiders move to Las Vegas.

Jim Still waiting on where you get your information?

FYI avg home in Florida $297,390 Oklahoma $150,754 West Virginia $117,768 Arkansas $149,120 funny I dont see people running to these states with that are affordable and have the same no masks no vac mandates stuff
here is my source


https://www.move.org/2020-moving-sta...MovedtoandFrom

California, New York, Texas, Florida, Illinois, Washington, and Colorado may have lost more residents than other states, but they also gained more new residents than other states. North Carolina, Arizona, and Georgia also had an influx of new residents.


I call that a wash


Nearly half of our survey respondents said their move resulted from income loss and the need for affordable housing. And over a third of respondents said their move was related to COVID-19, either from concerns related to health, work, housing, or money.

the death rate is around tenth. in a state with a massive percentage of elderly, and a state that didn’t crush its citizenry, that’s good.

it’s not just home prices. taxes are a huge part of what makes a place affordable or not.

florida, TN, SC, NH are places with super super low taxes, yet which also offer places with a good quality of living. obviously, you don’t always get what you pay for. people
are realizing this in huge numbers.

Dead is dead In Florida, 83 percent of coronavirus deaths are people 65 and older

So blame the elderly?

goal posts are cemented in place. the data show what i claimed. so when i make a point now, your go-to response is “ you moved the goal posts”.

here’s another article about which state gained house seats and which lost house seats, based on the 2020 census.

CA lost a seat for the first time in 170 years.
