Blue-state Rust Belt article, and my move to California

Fun with numbers … take a look at the damning infographic in the article.
(Once again, LinkedIn won’t allow me to post images in new posts, although I am usually allowed to post links to articles.)
Anyway, oddly enough, I moved (temporarily)
*to* California last month,
as Project Manager for an energy upgrade project.
But I should be in California for less than 1 year, before moving on elsewhere to my (as yet unknown) next project, somewhere (as yet unknown) in a different U.S. state.
Prolly somewhere in the U.S. Midwest.

“We’re still trying to settle on a name for the new “Rust Belt” for blue states, where high taxes, de-growth climate policies, permitting paralysis, and an obsession with woke governance have sparked a historic outflow of people, businesses, and capital to red states.
The old Rust Belt was hollowed out by decades of deindustrialization.
This new version in blue states is being hollowed out by self-inflicted progressive policy failures after policy failures after policy failures. …”
