The whole point is for them to leave. They it further solidifies their power, and as far as population growth goes they’re already attacking pro-choice AND education to ensure that they have a steady supply of ignorant and easily controlled constituents.
They lose money and the states that do make money (blue states) pick up the bill. I really don’t know why this point isn’t driven home more. Texas is the only red state that pays more tax to the federal government than they receive in aid(and frankly theyre more purple but oppressed). The states most reliant on federal funding in order to function are the reddest states.
As long as the state stays red, they’ll always have equal say in how our government works. That’s the plan, it’s a slow hostile takeover because representation doesn’t correlate to population. It’s how Wyoming has the same voting power as California, even though California’s GDP is measured on a global scale more accurately than a national scale. The more educated people leave to blue states, the more say red states have in national politics.
At least some of the people remaining just say “It’s good dems are leaving they are the devil.”

Let’s see what happens to states (and also countries like Russia) which purposefully enact policies that cause educated people to leave.
