Socialism: If You Build It — They Will Leave

As we’ve discussed numerous times around here, when states go from red, or even purple, to hard core blue–residents and businesses vote with their feet. (Even in the big blue states overseas.)

Ed Morrissey’s latest post explores similar ground — and it focuses on a state (New Jersey) whose fiscal and gubernatorial woes were the subject of one of our very first podcasts.

Update: This comment underneath Ed’s post crystallizes the opinions I’ve heard from several of my friends and family still in New Jersey.
