Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

What's ironic is that the decline of Florida will probably lead to their government throwing money at corporations to build there. The corps will bite, but they'll need intelligent and skilled workers to actually run their business. They aren't going to find that in Florida. They'll have to woo people from outside of Florida to move there, which will be a tough sell. If they can't get enough people, the corporations will leave too, and Florida will become so bad that liberals in neighboring states will be weighing the ethics of refusing Floridian refugees.
Let's say though that the corporations do manage to find workers from elsewhere. Those workers will live in newly constructed luxury homes with brand new, reliable infrastructure. They won't bother with places outside of their bubble unless they also become gentrified. This would create a demand for workers in these new, fancy places. And so, Floridians will find themselves either serving an outsider upper class, or taking orders from outsider managers and senior workers. They'll become a servant lower class to an upper class of other Americans.
Don't get me wrong, this is fucked up, and it's going to hurt the common folk, not the politicians who deserve it. It's tragic.
