The two biggest blue states, California and New York, have high cost of living because they don't build enough. People have moved to Colorado, despite it becoming a solid blue state with rainbow flags, and Arizona and Georgia which each have two Democratic senators.

It could be "don't build enough".
I'm more inclined toward the tight geographic focus of good jobs.

Sure, they could drop another 10 million homes even further from Manhattan / Silicon Valley.
But even American commuters draw the line somewhere around 150 minutes each direction.

What do you find fascinating about thousands who who died of covid aren't around to frame an argument against De Santis's libertarian health policies?

It's fascinating because it goes a lot further into how Florida ended up the way it did. Also, it does a lot on how Hispanics went to the right namely because of hostility to socialism and how Democrats were tarred with that.

They could drop a lot of homes in the Tri-State and Silicon Valley itself. There's more determination to do that, belatedly. so see how it goes.
