Let’s consider, if we build a fence around a land, would people try to go into that land or out. Take for instance, if there were a fence around New York, would people try to escape the state or sneak into the Empire State. I think past evidence already point out that there are more U-Hauls headed out of the state than into it.

It can be a great expense to leave a place where you’ve grown roots. It might mean selling a house or apartment at a loss. More than that, it will likely mean leaving family and friends. In truth, this difficulty is effectively a fence, a barrier to keep people from leaving.

Now, let’s take California. Certainly all the same things apply to it as those that apply to New York, but two things more. California has some of the best weather in the world and miles and miles of some really great beaches. I know firsthand. I used to live in Garden Grove, California 30 to 40 minutes from many of those beaches. And I spent a lot of time at five or six of them.

I know how hard it is to pull up stakes and move from that state. Every winter, every summer, I am reminded of it. Nonetheless, I moved from there to Memphis and then to Desoto County and I am glad I did. Moreover, there are many more who have done the same, that is to say, they left California.

I dare say, it has gotten bad enough that I suspect there are those who would leave all to get out. There are some that would build 15 foot ladders to climb any fence they’d build around it. Why is it that people are willing to give up the weather and the beaches?

It’s something called socialism. It’s ruled by people who call themselves democrats. However, many of them are outright socialists, or ever communists. They have a choke hold on that state and the proclamation has been made, you can’t run for anything unless you are willing to bow down to the controllers who claim to have the best interest of the poor at heart.

As a side note, there is nothing keeping the poor, poor more than the dems. It is not the rich they tax but rather those who are making money. The rich already have their money and they know how to sit on it to keep anyone from getting it.

Now, let’s look at the other fences, the ones around Florida, Tennessee, and Texas. They won’t work. People will find ways to get into those states. The past stats verify that. It is where people drive their U-Hauls and drop them off, I might add, at quite an expense. They are moving into strange neighborhoods where they know not anyone outside of their family. Maybe they don’t even have a means of employment yet.

They move to these states because the people running them actually understand capitalism. They know, if they work hard they can make a living and government won’t come along and take it from them. As a side benefit, they actually know the difference between men and women and they don’t try to talk boys into becoming girls or visa-versa.

Most of us around here understand the concept of putting those who break the law behind bars. (Well, there is something of an exception for Memphis. You can’t hold it agin them though. Their town is run by dems who know better, they just don’t like the concept. And so it is that people are also leaving Memphis.)

You would, of course think the dems caught on by now. They have seen how people from socialists countries are risking life and limb to leave their country to come to the US where we still have some semblance of capitalism. You ask those new arrival if they want the US to be like the place they just left, and they will get a horrified look on their face and say, please no. Not ever.

It is often a lesson learned too late. It wasn’t until Stalin had control that people realized they made a big mistake. It wasn’t until after Mao killed his millions that the Chinese realize that that they should have followed Chiang Kai-shek. It wasn’t until Castro had a firm grip on Cuba that the Cubans realized they made a big mistake. Those kind of mistakes never get corrected. Those controllers grab control and no human will ever be able to loose their hold.

Let’s hope and pray we don’t wait until the only way to leave the US is in a little home made row boat, as with the Cubans. The fact is, it will be too late. Even if we can put a good motor on that little craft, we won’t have anywhere to go.
