West Virginia’s recent population decline has been one of the largest in the history of the United States. From 1950–2000, an estimated total of 797,000 people were lost to out-migration. One faculty member, who will be dismissed from WVU if the cuts are approved and who spoke on condition of anonymity, said: “West Virginia’s population decline is the largest in the U.S. From 2010 to 2020, nearly 60,000 people left.
This is the goal, it's not just about keeping people in red states uneducated, it's about making educated people leave so the states stay red.
Republicans have shown over and over again that they care more about staying in office than helping their states.
Especially with the Senate system. Liberal voters leaving is the goal of most of the stupid shit they do. I don't blame people leaving, but the only way to fight this is to stay and vote.
I feel that any politician is more concerned with staying in office than about their actual constituents. You can’t tell me that Nancy Pelosi cares about her constituents. Look at the homeless population in San Francisco alone.
Now, I’m not saying one party is better than the other. Just that they’re all morally questionable, at best.
