I can understand why the people in the north want to break away from the people in the south.

The same reason 'wealthy' people across the country moved out of cities to the suburbs in the 80s and beyond.

The fact that 29% of the people are paying 42% of the taxes has to sting, especially when the people who are paying the bills are not using the services their money provides.

I say ship all of the rich out of the Country, it'll be better off.

:roll:

Be so kind and go live in cuba/venezuela if you're so fond of the everyone-is-equal mentality. My parents and I actually lived thru it ... the reality is nowhere near this idealistic picture of a commune working towards a common socialistic.

I love that it's always spoiled americans that never really struggled in their life that advoce this defuncty and long-debunked ideology. Anyone that actualyl went thru it (banana lines what?) will tell you how disfunctional communism is in practice.

I don't know what you are talking about that I am so fond of but I'm curious to hear how you sh!t differently than I do.

"Rich" is relative. Be careful what you wish for.

QFT. That place is a dump.

Hence why the majority of us don't live in the city. Its a giant jobs program for the politicians who control it. It never has been about serving the citizens, only serving the politicians and their cronies.

I used to live in Cobb county, just North of Atlanta, I moved further West into Paulding recently for a little more peace and quiet. I don't care what my commute becomes, I will not be subject to taxes that serve only to keep crooks employed.
