  This is the hypocrisy of the left and why people are leaving blue states and in the process are losing electoral votes for President and representatives in the House. These people have jobs and the “liberal” states don’t do nearly enough to enable affordable housing.

  This is coming from someone who believes in universal health care, (de)regulation to make affordable housing available, affordable post high school education, increasing the minimum wage, etc.

  But as someone who travels extensively and has been all over the US, there is no blue state I would want to live in. High taxes, high cost of living and spend more time virtue signaling than trying to solve problems that people care about.

  The best I’ve found is blue metropolitan areas in red (and purple) states.
