I posted the truth. You are just a liberal whiner enjoying the hard work of conservatives. You stay in bed while others build it for you.
You live in a conservative state.
lol, both of those cities have parts of town I could easily afford. That said, cost of living isn't everything to me, as you stated (see bolded)...so, as always, you're wrong, and lied in the process.
I've answered your question: "Memphis is my home. I was not only born here, but my family lives here..."

No you couldn't. You are the typical liberal living in the south pretending you are living in a blue state...only without all the ridiculous costs associated with it. You can't afford to live outside Memphis.
Yet again, you claim to know more about me than me...ah, the height of hubris...
I could easily afford to live somewhere like Portland, Las Vegas, or Denver...but my family lives in Memphis, and therefore, I live in Memphis.
You try and make everything political, choosing to live near my family is not a political choice, it's a personal choice.

We know what you've told us.
Just another lonesome liberal in a sea of red.
lol, I'm not lonesome...I live with 1.3 million other people, most of them liberals.

Yeah they built one of the worst states for quality of life.
It's obvious you've never been there.
Oh I've been to Tennessee numerous times....care to make up other facts about me? 'Tis a bad habit you extremists have imo.
Hmmm, I bet I can, let's see...
You like fat girls named Drew
Your lips constantly smell like bad canooter due to the dairy you eat
You're a secret fan of the Confederacy
You have small feet because of the cold weather
How very creepy.

So, I'll ask again? Why don't you move to a liberal utopia like California?
Because California is bankrupt and broke... That's why he wouldn't live there and that's why he keeps dodging.
He wouldn't live there because housing, food and taxes are three times what he pays in Tennessee. Yet he thinks the Democrats provide the best society...but he won't live in it.
I wouldn't live in CA either way. If I didn't have family here I could do Portland, seems like a cool city with low cost of living and good quality of living.
Good quality of living? TOTALLY
Closing off the list of the highest suicide rates is Oregon with an estimated 17.9 suicide completions per 100,000 residents in 2010. The state’s overall rate has been climbing since the dawn of the new millennium. In 2011, 685 residents ended their lives. That number is 2 times that of automotive deaths and 6 times that of deaths by homicide.

RE: If The States Of
I doubt it would end up in Texas or Georgia.
My bet would honestly be on Louisiana. I say that because Louisiana would be the single most important state for the continued growth of that nation and its connections with the rest of the old USA. When it comes to economic driving forces, Texas may be larger but it is Louisiana that will drive the bus when it comes to a lot of things. Louisiana has a lot going for it the more you think about it. Central location, equity, economic engine, access, and it's already a sizable hub. The only negative it has is the fact that Louisiana still has that moronic legal system.
My next guess would be eastern Texas, Houston. Again, it is going to be a major economic driver with the port and international connection. Downsides include a not so central location, isolation from the rest of the nation culturally, and it isn't a place with a capitol type feel. You'd have to build all the actual capitol buildings from scratch.
My third guess would be Nashville. It's also a major economic area for the new nation but it offers a more central location that's less likely to offend some. Louisiana also has this going for it.

You couldn't afford that either.
Yes, I can...simple as that.
But I don't want to.
Doubtful

Look up the Memphis crime stats and get back to me.
That said, I like my home, and intend to live here and care for my aging parents.

RE: If The States Of
I'm represented by mostly liberals, live in a very liberal area, and I choose to live in Memphis to stay close to my family...cost of living has nothing to do with it.
I'll repeat it as many times as it takes to get through that thick skull...politics doesn't factor into where I'm living.
