Republicans BADLY misunderstand this.

People like Tucker Carlson promote this really stupid myth that high taxes and other liberal policies drive people out of blue states and into red states.

Reality is people leave blue states because housing is so expensive. Housing is so expensive in NY and California because jobs are so plentiful that millions of people move to those places to live. 

In other words, people aren't leaving because the states are failing. They leave because it's too successful. It's easier to just move to a low wage red state because you can take the equity in your CA or NY house and just buy a house outright with the money in a low wage state.

And now that WFH is so popular, you can keep earning blue state salaries while paying red state cost of living.
