    It’s Idaho now. Oregon became too communist for them, so they want to become part of that state. Even though they will be paying way more in taxes.

      Something conservatives learned a long time ago that progressives are just starting to wise up to…

      The least populated states still get 2 senators and an over representation (at least by population) in the House. It’s easier to change the leadership if you can convince enough people move and the entire state has a sub 1 million citizen population. Your vote means more when there are less votes in the total pool.

      Property is usually cheaper, too.
