Is it true? Could Colt be looking to bail out of Connecticut?

I am capitalist enough to fully believe that it would be a good thing for some of the firearms (or, for that matter, other manufacturers as well) to move to Oklahoma. However, I would be concerned that should a company move, that their employees would also move with the company. Thus, the receiving state would then have some people moving into the state that may share some, if not all, of the liberal ideas of the state they left. By going to a conservative state, I'd be fearful that they would be wanting some of the "benefits" of the state they left and thus want the politician of their "new" state to provide the same benefits.

This is a very good point. It was said that is how obama won Virginia in 08, 12 and North Carolina in 08. The yankees end up moving there because they are running from the problems their liberal policies create ( like high crime and taxes) and they bring their ideology with them and then do not realize the reason they left New York or New Jersey is the result of those policies.

Delaware and Maryland are two communist states now because of people mostly from Jersey moving into them. Both states were slave states, both had segregation as a matter of law in the constitution and both states had secession votes ( the one in Delaware did not go anywhere) yet you would never know it as blue as those states are today. Colorado is a another example.
