   On 07 Oct 2025, Ron L. said the following...

   If there is an angry mob in Canada they'll just give him a stern talking too   
   when they find him... Oh the words!!   
      
      
    RL>    
    RL> You can be sure of that.  And more than "several".

   But his tax base will be gone and the Jobs they take with them when they move   
   move their assets out of the state... Somewhere where the taxes and regulatory   
   burden is less.

    RL> We need to stop seeing things as they WERE and see them as they ARE.    
    RL> And I know that it's hard because we love that nostalgic feeling.  But   
    RL> just because something was great doesn't mean it's still great -

   I saw a video today that made me happy for 3 or 4 seconds...   
      
   Apparently, facts were released recently that has shown all the states that   
   record voter registration and track party affiliation, there are 30 that do,   
   ALL 30 are trending Republican... "ALL".     
      
   California has received ~50,000 new Republican registrations whereas the   
   Democrats have received only ~170 since the last election.  It looks like   
   Nevada might flip Red during the next election... They currently have more   
   Republicans registered than Democrats.  If history is any indication, and   
   that's all we have to go on, that state always votes ~4 points towards the   
   Republicans...    
      
   It looks like there may be a political realignment happening... 2026 and 2028   
   may be brutal for the Democrats.
