OCity Limits

clipped from www.americanthinker.com As I read founder of Creators Syndicates Rick Newcombe's explanation of why he is moving his business out of the increasingly corrupt confines of Los Angeles and the anti growth policies of California in general, I had to wonder.  Business aren't the only one who relocate to get away from high taxes and arbitrary, out of control bureaucrats.  Americans have been voting with their feet for decades now.  During the last half of the 20th century, all across America, married people with children voted with their feet rather than take on the dirty job of trying to reform the nation's corrupt urban political systems and the seemingly impossible task of fixing urban school systems.   It was do that, or shell out a small fortune in local taxes and then pay private school tuition for your children's education on top of it.  Mayor Daley, a consummate political survivor, now rules Chicago from a much different power base than the largely white blue collar machine he inherited from his father.
