I mean...duh? Basically the entire point of having different laws in different states is that people can choose what laws they want to live under. No one should be surprised that young people are considering that when choosing colleges.
Most people aren't exactly choosing... they're just too economical destitute to leave, because the society/government/capitalism has kept them poor. Totally possible for people to get trapped.
so if you are not able to afford move out of a state or just stuck where you are it is your fault?
what about the ones of us not allowed to vote was it our fault we have bad laws in our state too?
what about the ones of us who because of work or whatever have to cross state lines?
when do make politicians accountable or is always those people's fault for not voting right or living in the right state?
A while back I had to travel for work so read up on my employers benefits - apparently they’ll cover emergency airlift back to a developed country for medical emergencies
That's where you're supposed to have basic rights. But that hasn't been a thing in the US... Uhhh .... Ever. Even when SCOTUS didn't let cops kill people wantonly, it just never got that far in the legal system. So I guess there's at least been progress?
But yeah I'm not going to be mad that the people who can get out of the worst states do so. It doesn't mean we stop fighting for basic rights, it means the idea of 50 laboratories is working. For example, you don't hear much about the flat tax idea after Brownback obliterated the government in Kansas with it.
