It is going to be funny in 10 years when leaders in Alabama wonder why their population is dropping as people leave.

Huntsville is screwed. They need a lot of very high skilled, high education people to work on their aerospace and intel programs. Nobody will go there. Contractors quit rather than go there. Gilead can't survive modernity. No wonder they want a nuclear war.

NASA exists in some very unfortunate states. Florida, Alabama, and Texas. Didn’t we learn anything from the War of Southern Stupidity? Why wouldn’t we place the non-launching sites in states that don’t require importing talent?

Specifically *because* those places needed an economic boost, and their congressional reps successfully argued for it. Part of that negative balance of tax revenue in vs fed dollars spent in those states.
 
Congratulations to Wisconsin, as Gov. Tony Evers signed their new, ungerrymandered state rep and senate districts into law today.

To quote Biden, "This is a big, fckin' deal." Michigan's state leg flipped blue for the first time in decades after the 2022 elections, which used the ungerrymandered maps we implemented via an IRC.

I mean, geography played a huge role in one of them.

otherwise, yeah, Texas and Alabama were just good at being loud.

It's a friggin huge deal...no more minority rule!
 
"But now rural voters won't get their say." -- Flyover moderates, probably.

This is how majority rule feels. It's democracy. Now get rid of the EC and the turnip boroughs with 100x the individual voting power of other states.

Everybody get it, yet?
