Seems like something that WFH would solve without having to upend so many employee lives.

      Or build a blue city on the triple-border of South Dakota, Montana, and Wyoming. Property is crazy cheap there. It’s the perfect place for a big “blue utopia” city.

      Because of those states’ small population, just a small number of Democratic votes there could yield three states’ electoral votes and six senators.

      Republicans would lose forever if Democrats didn’t gerrymander themselves into the coasts.

        IIRC some red states have already floated the idea of not letting people vote for several years after moving there specifically to ensure that Republicans never lose control.

        Bend gets snowed out frequently and suffers from a lack of diversity. It could use some more folks for sure but idk if people would want to live there in the winter
