Yeah, I don't plan to be in Missoula forever.
This weekend I was talking to a guy from CA doing a cross county motorcycle trip who happened to be camping right near my cabin. He asked where I was from. Then he said, "Oh yeah, Missoula. I love how progressive that place is. The wife and I want to retire there." It was hard to be civil after that.
" I heard cali was REALLY progressive, why would you EVER want to leave?"
Californian recites long list of woes.
"Hmm, must have been all the evil conservatives that have been dominating Californian politics for years, eh?"
Californian mutters to self.
The hard part is getting past their cognitive dissonance ala Orwell and Bezmanov and showing them it was their own ideas that screwed up the place they now want to leave- it is a damned hard thing to do, because most leftists have a very hard time putting two and two together.
Illustration- most of them think Obama's idea to further subsidize the cost of a college education is a great way to reduce the students cost. -They simply can't fathom that the cost will rise in direct correlation with the extra "free money" available. If they could see this simple fact, they could then see that Government interference is the REASON so many things, like medical care, cost so much.
