A Cautionary Tale For Democrats: Red State Boom vs Blue State Bust

by Mike

On FNC this afternoon, The WSJ Editorial Report covered the Phil Mickelson tax controversy, and where he could live for less than a 63% penalty. Paul Gigot, James Freeman, Kimberly Strassel and Stephen Moore discussed how states with no, or falling, income tax are booming, and states with high, or rising, income tax are stagnant or failing. Listen up Maggie and Terrie:

Mike is a British import of some 27 years, who was a conservative in the days of Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan. A staunch constitutionalist, Mike espouses all good causes toward the libertarian side of conservative - EG he who governs least, governs best. He believes that the Declaration, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights mean what they say, and that candidates for office should take their oaths of office seriously. Here to defend, without irony "Your rights as Englishmen from distant and tyrannical government", Mike knows whereof he speaks and exhorts all US citizens to live, breathe and teach our history and our constitution.

    Let us prey –
    Oh Lord, we beseech thee to assist with all your grace the efforts of that small, diminutive Poindexter of a man – Devolved Patrick – in his efforts to further ratchet the grate taxing machine of the mAss commonwealth so as to further buttress the flows of revenues to those residing non-mobility in your chosen land of milk and honey – New Hampshire. May you further answer our prayers by restoring integrity to our State motto. A-men.

        I’m afraid I rote this prayer for a rather select crowd, but I’m glad you were there in the bleacher pew. Aren’t you so glad you left MA-MA Land?

          As you know Sir Pooch, i have lived all over the Western Hemisphere and visited most of it. I can find enough in common to make a friend out of just about anyone, anywhere. Compared to the 13 or so countries i had been to, Mass. was a great place, just to damn cold. For me, it’s more about where you are inside then out, although i have to admit, as i get away from my self emposed domicile border of 100 miles north of I-10, my mood suffers.

            That’s ‘cuz you’re more evolved than me – or is that “I”? Is “than” a preposition or some weird kinda transitive conjunctivitis? Cursed grammar.

            Anywho, I like ‘em diverse, but I don’t like anyone yankin’ my chain … without full adult consent. I met a Mtn. Man once who was barely connected to all the techno-hoopla that surrounded him – one of the “coolest” guys I ever met … and very different. Also encountered a bunch of Tibet monks who made pretty pictures, then threw them away. Weird, but sum interestin’. Then, I met hairy krishnas in an airport once, and they burdened my load with odd liturgy, but were nice enough, I think, thought the glazed over demeantor was kinda creepy. So long as they’re down with live, and leave me alone, I’m down with their spins on the celestial seasonings.

            Damn i wish i had your pros. It’s hard to believe your an armature, and rank at that. i too have pondered why one would spend all that time making a nice picture, just to brush them away. Go to Vice again. There is a guy living in Anwar Alaska that i envy, (except i would rather be isolated on an island of the coast of Coasta Rica with a local native), and another guy living at the tip of south america all by hizself for 40 years. I’m all for being isolated, but have to have the company of the Eve.

          • C. dog e. doG

            Yes, the company of Eves takes the chill off the starry scary night. By the way, when I say “leave me alone” it’s more of a truncated expression for “leave me alone to my own vices.”
