Lobster Rage Fist.
I'm surprised you didn't get it. Lobster rage fist is an underground kind of thing. Seems weird to me, but I dunno, I don't live in America. It started in NYC last year, and most of the EDM crowd seem to be into it. Bas lives in LA and they're getting into it over there already. The fashion part of it is mostly for pool parties though. I'm not sure if NYC is a pool party sort of place? |

What kind of camera do you use for your photography?
Do you just let the camera auto meter and take pictures, or are you manually changing the f-stop to make it larger? |

I love visiting NY for the fact that you can get anything you want at any time, have incredible museums/music/art/restaurants, and some pretty amazing historic stuff.... but visiting and living there are 2 different things. Unless you're in the 99th percentile that runs around in wealthy circles, you're mostly stuck in the annoying dirtiness of that congested concrete jungle. |
Am I wrong? (hint: no) |

I use a Canon 50D body.
Most of the time I shoot on Aperture Priority mode, so I manually change the f-stop and ISO depending on the amount of light. The shutter speed is adjusted automatically by the camera, depending on those settings. Full manual mode is too much is a pain in the arse :p |

It can't possibly be a coincidence that the states and cities with the highest rates of combined city/state/property taxation and regulatory fees (California, Illinios, New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Michigan), also the strongest social welfare policy states, have the vast majority of their people moving to Florida and Texas who have NO state income tax and are consistantly rated as most "business friendly". Utah is seeing a major surge in business development because so many people from CA are moving across that border. I don't think there's any stronger motivating factor to move than knowing you can go to a place that lets you keep more of the money you make. |
You don't think there's any stronger motivating factor to move because that's the strongest motivating factor for you. That doesn't mean that that is the reason why everyone else is moving.
All this map does is show people moving. It doesn't say anything about why they are moving. You can speculate about the reason as much as you want, but all you're going to get is a bunch of correlations. Stop being so illogical and thinking that correlation = causation; pretty basic knowledge that it doesn't.
All you have are guesses and speculations, no facts at all. |

My motivitations are not unique by any stretch. I never said it was the reason EVERY person was moving, and I'm defintiely not saying correlation = causation... but you can't deny the trend and statistical probability on the motivations. Do you seriously think it's a coincidence? The map does a lot more than "show people moving" man, come on. Look WHERE they are moving to and from. A huge surge from high cost of living to low cost of living; from strongly liberal welfare states to conservative business friendly states.
Most people who disagree with me on this issue are still in school or relatively new to the workplace and simply can't/don't yet relate to the realities of it. Like I said eariler, there's a reason why Utah's business development is surging- and factual data of CA companies uprooting and re-opening across the border shows this. I know it probably kills your liberal mind to think that the policies you support would drive people out of the bluest of blue cities/states and head towards the red... because that would validate a different reality over what you've been pushed to believe. Just talk to any business owner and ask them if they'd rather open or run a company in California/New York vs. Texas/Florida. Money is the strongest behavior management tool ever. |
