Not much changed.
Sure... we had the ACA. It was a piss poor deal for health care but it was a start. When "single payer" was dropped... I knew it was a joke.
He didn't start any silly and expensive wars. That's a good thing.
The whole transgender thing was a stain on his presidency. I just don't know why we all needed to go there.
Racism became popular again. I can't really blame him. I really think it was American's behaving badly.

A lot has changed in the SouthEast part of the US. In my state we have had 500000 people move here since 2006. Our employment ranking is 20th in the nation.It is your states governor responsibility to create s low tax low regulation environment to attract businesses.

@Zonuss: That increase in population started "10 years" ago, I wonder why ?

@softspokenman: Because the Rust Belt has been dead for 30 years and has gotten worse. You have 300000 people living in Cleveland Ohio now. And Charlotte NC has about 800000. I think you get the point.

I don't get the point. Why are we comparing anything to Cleveland, Ohio?
A big part is REITs and economic incentives. The only issue is that companies are fickle and tend to invest in the states where they profit most. Charlotte could easily be the next Cleveland in 15 years.
I noticed one thing since we moved farther south from the Midwest and the one major thing you guys don't deal with is snow. That's a huge expense.

@Kindheartedguy: The point is that we have seen a mass wall of Northerners move South because of a lackof jobs in that part of the country.jobdjobjoj

Congress has been "Biting the hand that feeds it" for way too long. The FatCat, Big Business/politicians are in the "Let them eat* cake" mode and we know what happened then. History repeating itself ?

"Let them eat cake" might be one of the first reported instances of fake news.
