Use your own brain for once redditor

Cali/Illinois/NY journo cope for losing everyone to Texas and Florida is as follows

>Texas has... POWER SUPPLY PROBLEMS!!!
>Florida has.... MORE EXPENSIVE HOME INSURANCE IN SOME PLACES

rinse and repeat, pathetic

Only getting more popular btw. Over the past 3 years alone, we have gone from 34% to 29% urban as a population share. Suburbs/rural areas growing. Crime continuing to rise in big cities, alongside ridiculous housing prices. Rap is dying, country is rising. Inflation shall be defeated. It is the late 70's all over again.

We aren't 50%, not even close. This isn't Texas or California. We are solidly 70%. Consider not living in deepest darkest West Virginia, white communities are thriving and that's why everyone wants to move to them.

I know you're a larping Asian btw. Maybe move back to China if it's paradise.

In another word

>The urban share of American population has dropped from 34% to 29% in just 3 years

The age of hyperurbanization... IS OVER. We are healing. No one has to live next to a niggerplantation anymore.

The taxes are higher for top 50% earners no matter how you cut it. All of the taxes together. And then there are tons of hidden things that highly tax/regulatory states do. They restrict housing... which makes it odiously expensive. They make it difficult to start or run a small business, which reduces your options, and raises costs. Taxes in Cali aren't just double that of Florida, so is the cost of food and gas. It's tons of little things that add up from this general culture of letting the state do whatever they want.

People don't move because it's fun, or convenient. It's sheer necessity and reality.

Absolutely SEETHING. The southeast is currently the future of this country.

That would murder liquidity, and the incentive to build new homes.

The problem is obvious. There is overregulation, and oversubsidization, leading to artificially high demand and artificially low supply. Mortgage rates SHOULD be around 8-9% on average, freezing demand. Then you have states like California/Illinois/NY, combined, building less new houses over a 5 year period than Texas alone.

It's a state problem. They need to roll it back and keep it there.

>yeah those low tax states that are currently pulling in all of the nation's workers thanks to their favorable business climate and economic freedom? SHITHOLES. It's actually TAXES that make people happy. Every day i wake up and praise my TAXES.

HE'S GONNA TAXOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

Pretty much this. Leave the blight.

Meanwhile California is literally hosting Xi Jinping and flying Chinese Communist flags all the way down their streets. And people act like there's any contest right now...

The less popular cities will be the first to demonstrably crumble. The era of hyperurbanization is over, people don't need to cluster around a city center to do business anymore. Retard mayors/DAs and their hands off towards crime policies are just the icing on the cake.

He's assuming constant, perpetual urban sprawl and urbanization. There's going to be a decentralization/de-urbanization trend in the coming century thanks to wfh/remote work and mass virtualization of life, cities aren't as relevant anymore.

>he doesn't know

There's so much wealth tied up in the Bay Area/LA. How long could they practice aggressively antisocial government before it finally collapses for realsies not just on conservative blogs? It feels like these people don't ever lose, but then again it's only been about 15 or so years of true insanity there.

NEVER MOVING BACK, CITYCUX

Because leftist termites don't do that. They rush in then elect megatstate superbureaucracies that grind economic activity to a halt, jack up taxes/regs and turn everyone into a servile underclass puppet. Look at how fucking poor and miserable the majority of city people are now outside of the upper crust elite who live atop them in towers and capitalize on the grift.

Leftism is a product, you suckers buy it, perpetuate cancer, until the inevitable boiling point whereupon you move out and try to repeat the process in functional, happy communities. Fuck off

>>55473361

It's ok, no one's planning on moving there anyway

Move to California if you dare. It's the definition of catching the knife, there is no end in sight as their government doubles down on the same policies that are fucking up their society. Apple's market cap doesn't matter if your house is $2M, there are homeless zombies out on the street every day harassing you, and the schools are trying to turn your kids into trannies and will call CPS if you try to stop it.

Hasn't stopped. And this trend preceded 2020, 2020 merely accelerated it as the additional aspect of "blue states may quite literally imprison me at will" was thrown into the equation.
