804,
I'll let you in on a little southern secret. 150 years ago, we wanted to leave but the north had other ideas. BTW, strange that slavery ended without war across the planet except here but then that assumes the war was fought over slavery to begin with.
Anyhoo, the southern secret is that we learned a little trick from this fella named Osama bin Laden and now southerners like thirsty vampires are bleeding the northerners dry. To make it even better, the stupid yankees keep demanding their own pay more taxes which we bleed right out of your coffers right into our own pockets. So you see, 150 years ago it would have been in your best interest to have kicked us to the curb and be done with us but now it's too late. Our fangs are deeply embedded in your Carotid artery. So as your world in the north succombs to the death of the southern cause, you only have yourself to blame.
Once again, Imperial America is bitten by it's own unintended consequences!
Speaking of that era, reading earlier today in how General Grant wanted to expel the jews!

Maybe some of the other stuff is true but I really find it hard to believe the the workers in the south are more productive. From my experiences in the Army (Ft Campbell, Ky. Ft.Benning, Ga. and Ft. Polk, Louisiana) and a dozen vacations down through Mo. Ark. Ala. Tenn. Fla and all other points south I have come to the conclusion that if the people down there got any slower they would be going backwards. Not That being "laid back" isn't good but I fail to see how they get anything accomplished at the speed they move. A friend tried to buy bait at a little ma and pa baitshop in Bull Schoals, Ark one time and to hear him tell the story of how long it took for the lady to scoop out a couple of dozen minnows is hilarious. He figured they could handle no more than about 4 customers a day at the rate they moved.
disclaimer: I'm sure all UPS workers in the south move like greased lightening.

Businesses move for one reason, money.
UPS moved from CT to GA for money, for example.
Taxes play a major role in that, especially with business taxes for large corporations. You go where you have the most advantageous tax code for your situation.
Of course there are consequences for low taxes, but they are of little concern for corporations. An educated workforce is not necessarily advantageous in all situations. Y'all love the charter schools and such.
Edit: It's also hard to have an honest discussion when some folks just make crap up, and call it a fact.

Maybe because there is a lot of people who like being scab labor and more Mexicans. Republicans love to exploit both.

That is money ... UPS had to pay people more to move.
Also, the best person would turn down the job as you said.

Seriously though, by any measure Obama was an uber-capitalist.
What's this 'Socialist' nonsense you're pedaling?
