I mean just buying a home would be prohibitive. My house in Florida could get me 375K or so with property taxes at 2700. In a blue state, I couldn’t get a 2100 square foot house for near that.

If blue states could find a way to make living affordable, you’d have a lot of people moving in that want to.
