1.  People continue to flee the indebted, pension ponzi burdened liberal states of New England and the Midwest with New Jersey, Illinois, New York and Connecticut all ranking at the very top of the most ditched states of 2016. 

2.  Obama's obliteration of the coal industry has pushed people out of Kentucky, West Virginia and Ohio, none of which appeared on the list of most-ditched states back in 2008 and 2009 before Obama took office.

3.  Finally, the natural migratory pattern of New England's liberal elitists seems to be toward cheaper and lower taxed states in the Southeast and Western portions of the country...go figure.
