(369 posts)I had a dream where one by one, all the young doctors moved away from Red states that legislated extremely repressive anti-abortion and anti-contraception measures. The average age of physicians started to rise rapidly until there were no physicians under 60 years old left in the state. The same went for teachers, engineers, professionals of all ilk and most minorities. The extreme red states became like Somalia because there were no professionals with large incomes paying state tax. All that were left were the right wing christians who gladly lived in a state with no money to repair infrastructure, no working hospitals, no health insurance, and better yet, no women of child bearing age because they all left the state.
One can only dream.
