People continuing to leave Blue States

The GDP that supports the poor states like SC and GA might not be able to foot the bill for you guys anymore.
 
Maybe the poors in SC and GA will flee to the greener pastures of the blue north? Nobody in my circle needs outside GDP for help. Talk to Clyburn’s district.
'those people' still live in your state. maybe you can support your own?
 
My own? I do support my own - my wife, kids and any family who may need it in the future. Someone several counties away isn't "my own" because they happen to live in SC.
If I live 12 states away I get a bill?

What is it about Clyburn’s district that makes you say they need “outside GDP?”
 
?

Pretty sure I pay one of the biggest bills on this board for the government teet suckers. You can direct your complaints elsewhere.
You replied. I didn’t tag you.

If I live in a state that sends your state money… you’re part of it. If your state weren’t taking from other states and actually paying your states’ own way your tax bill would be much higher. Seems like a simple concept no matter what your burden is now?
 
It’s a poor district? Are we going to pretend like it’s not?
Actually, the poorest congressional district in South Carolina is district 7, which is Russel Fry’s district, though admittedly it is very close.

I’m just curious what it was specifically about James Clyburn’s district that caused @scotchtiger to single it out instead of Fry’s district

It's a very poor district. My parents live there. There is no denying it is a very poor district. No shame in pointing out facts

Right. I’m not disagreeing. I just am wondering why that particular district was singled out instead another, even poorer district.
 
But why that specific one? I’m just curious what it is about that district that made him choose to single it out.
Don't know why he picked that district but maybe it's tied to average media income . The last data published from the Sc census had Fry district at $54k and Clyburn $51k (not much of a difference ) .

To be honest, I have no idea who Russel Fry is without googling him. I’m more familiar with Clyburn’s district, it’s adjacent to where I live and there’s a shit ton of poverty there. My FIL’s farm is also in Clyburn’s district and I drive through it. Also drive through it on the way to the masters each year. You see a lot of poverty. Also see a house that looks like it’s still supporting the civil war on the masters route. Plenty of backwoods rednecks dragging down the state.

Closer to home, I own some rental properties in the portion of Clyburn’s district that extends into N. Charleston. I sold around 11 doors a couple of years ago because it wasn’t worth the headache given the renter quality in what I would call class C properties, of which there are a ton in that district. I bought a 7 unit multi family at one point and ho lee shit at some of the stuff I saw.
