The year is 1997 and the USA is at war with a Chinese-Russian alliance. A fifty foot wall has been constructed around Manhattan Island and the bridges to and from the island are mined. Due to a massive increase in crime nationwide, Manhattan Island has been converted into a penal colony and those sent there are sentenced for life. Manhattan Islnd is run by the criminals themselves, survival of the fittest. This is the premise of the John Carpenter cult classic Escape From New York, first screened in 1981. Its now 25 years since 1997, but things seem to be heading in the same direction, except that it is still possible to escape from New York and many New Yorkers and their businesses have chosen to do so. The escapees are trying to leave high taxes and high crime behind. Many are headed to Florida that has low taxes and a much lower crime rate. Florida has not defunded the police or restricted their ability to arrest criminals. There is still bail in place, so criminals are not released a few hours after they are arrested with little or no consequences or regard for their victims, and DAs are not eliminating or reducing sentences on criminals. About the largest crime problem occurred in 2018 at Marjorie Stoneman Dpughlas High School in Coral Springs, Florida. The root of this mass murder was the result of the Broward County (Florida's "bluest" county) hiring Robert Runcie as School Superintendent. Runcie had a reputation for lowering the crime rate of Chicago schools and the School Board wanted to do this for Broward Schools. Unfortunately, Runcie's technique was to simply tell principals to ignore criminal activity and not report it to the police. As a result, Nikolas Cruz, could have been jailed, and\or his weaoon seized from previous incidents. Runcie has since been fired by Gov. DeSantis and has been indicted for lying to a grand jury.
New York has a state and in in some places a city income tax and death tax. For years elderly New York retirees have been moving to Florida to avoid these taxes, especially since the money is being used for people who don't even try to benefit society as well as by corrupt politicians and their political favorites. Though Florida is by no means perfect, it is certainly a much better place to live than New York. Some Well Street Companies have moved and there is even talk of moving the NY stock Exchange as people are now afraid to go to work, especially after a prominent financial executive of Goldman Sachs was murdered while going to lunch.
California is also on fire for high crime and taxes, especially since woke DAs, financially supported by George Soros, are releasing and/or undercharging criminals so they can run wild in Los Angeles and San Francisco. Homelessness and open drug use are ruining those two cities and their streets are filled with used needles and syringes and human feces. Tent cities and garbage strewn everywhere are abundant even in so called good safe neighborhoods. US Rep. and Democrat candidate for mayor of LA, Karen Bass, was recently robbed of her guns during a home break-in. The criminals were caught and one held on $500K bail and the other released with no bail. HUH! Tax money is being used to pay for a massive welfare program that includes illegal aliens including free education including college, the education that other legitimate California citizens have to pay for and is covered by everyone's taxes. As a result, Californians are leaving and heading mostly to Texas and some to Florida. Governor Gavin Newsom has even put up billboards in Florida trying to lure former Californians back. He has been critical of Florida's highly successful Governor Ron DeSantis. DeSantis has been a thorn in the side of these woke Democrats because of his success. Now Newsom has asked political hack US Attorney General Merrick Garland to arrest DeSantis for kidnapping human trafficking after Desantis recently flew 50 illegal aliens to Martha's Vineyard. The illegals were from the 47 plane loads that Biden flew from the southern border to Jacksonville, Florida in the cover of night. If Garland arrests DeSanti,s he would have to arrest Biden.
Chicago also has experienced a massive increase in crime with no respect for real victims, except for Jussie Smolett's who wasn't really a victim and got off with a slap on the wrist for his real crime. Now the Illinois legislature in their great wisdom after seeing the failure of New York and California has passed laws that don't allow bail for numerous crimes including second degree murder. Also the police are not allowed to remove trespassers. Imagine coming home from a night out with your family and finding a homeless family has climbed in through an open window and asleep in your beds. It would not be the Goldilocks fairytale. A call to police to remove them would be a waste of time. I wonder what would happen if billionaire Governor Pritzker found a group of homeless occupying his estate. On top of all this, the Democrats want to take guns from law abiding citizens.
What is the end game of the Democrat Party. It can't be just votes. A perfect example is Germany during the 20s and 30s. An uthoritarian regime came to power and in fact brought criminals into its ranks calling them "Brown Shirts" and took guns away from the general public as the Brown Shirts ravaged the homes and business of those the regime deemed enemies of the state including Jews and political opponents, ultimately arresting them and putting them in concentration camps where they were either summarily executed or worked to death as slave labor. The low level criminals in our big cities could go to work for the Democrats who would promise them the houses and businesses of their enemies if they helped round them up. Don't laugh. BLM thugs have started to do this with the money they extorted from big business. Could you believe what is going on right now? If on 1/20/21, you wanted to list of things to do to make life in America worse for Americans and aid our enemies, it would include everythi8ng that Biden and the Democrats have done to America. The Woke experiment is a failure, we can't let it continue.
