Liberal Quarantine-This is where we need border fences. We can gerrymander the Maryland fence.

I had a thought about the infestations occurring in relatively sane states where newly arrived residents propose changes that will make the place as bad as where they came from.
It is likely not quite kosher to limit their ballot access per those old laws they dislike so much{read:Constitution}, so why not make one law that prevents them from proposing ANY changes until they have been residents for say 5 AND have held a full-time job, paid any and all taxes, and can prove by independent auditors that their proposed change will not cost more. IOW, siddownshaddup, you haven't been here long enough to know good from bad, and we don't want more taxes.
Locally, the county schools have figured out how to get loads of project money by using a time-limited sales tax{SPLOST} and bonds. The bonds run for 30 years, the tax for 3(?). So, every 3 years, they have to renew the tax, specify where the revenue will go[bonds AND NEW PROJECTS], and if the tax is rejected by the voters, property taxes will increase to pay the bonds. That sounds ok, but they keep getting new projects and tie the tax vote to issuing more new bonds. It lets the Superintendent of Schools look proficient and professional as he gets the money he wants for his 'cadillac' buildings, perks, etc while keeping the property tax levy fixed. The 'powers' have no plan, and every time the tax is set to expire, they send out queries for ideas on "new projects" they can spend the money on. They have no intention of ever paying off the bonds, nor cancelling the tax. "Free money. Let's spend it all."
Kinda like the OPTAR budgets in the Nav, where it would get to near the end of the quarter, and money would expire, and disappear if not spent, and everyone went hog wild proposing things to buy... Waste. But that's the way FedGov budgets work. If you estimate too high, you look bad, if you estimate too low, you look bad, so best to spend whatever is allocated to look good.

You missed a little island for Austin, TX. Although I'd support mandatory relocation.

Just remember: Austinites HATE Californian transplants... because the CA Lefties aren't liberal enough. (True story.)
