This is largely a southbound movement, and perhaps some migrants are \"running from the cold up in New England,\" as the song goes. But mostly they are leaving states that are too far gone into woke socialism to recover anytime soon—in favour of states with more conservative governance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe conventional wisdom, or fear, among red state locals is that these newcomers, despite having \"voted with their feet,\" will continue to vote for the same policies that ruined the states from which they are fleeing. Roger Simon argues that the reverse may be more accurate: blue-to-red migrants tend to be serious constitutional conservatives, and they might be the cavalry that rescues the red states from their own problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith the possible exception of Florida, the red states, too, are in trouble. Like California, long-term one-party rule has corrupted them, but in a different way. Their political leaders have become disconnected from the conservative values of their constituents. Migrants from blue states, however, are likely to be highly invested in saving the red states into which they are moving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAmerican Refugees\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46848343113964,"sku":"9781641773973","price":64.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/14729853482772.jpg?v=1758973900"},{"product_id":"i-know-best-by-roger-l-simon-9781641771993","title":"I Know Best","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1979, Christopher Lasch published the epochal \u003ci\u003eThe Culture of Narcissism\u003c\/i\u003e, warning of the normalising of narcissism in our society. Lasch may have understated it. Thirty-five years later, in an era marked by the Obama administration—with its parade of endless, often inexplicable, scandals—we are witnessing a full-blown epidemic of what has recently been called Moral Narcissism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eForget Narcissus and his reflection; Moral Narcissism—the almost schizophrenic divide between intentions and results now pervading our culture—is the new method for feeling good about yourself. It no longer matters how anything turns out, as long as your intentions were good, and you were \"moral.\" Most importantly, the only determinant of those intentions, the only one who defines that morality, is you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eI Know Best\u003c\/i\u003e goes beyond Lasch to lay bare how this moral narcissism is behind all those scandals from Obamacare to the Veteran's Administration, to the IRS, Benghazi, Bergdahl, Syria, and beyond. Everything the Obama administration did and does was about making them feel good about themselves—the results be damned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey have as their allies those supreme moral narcissists in the academy, media, and Hollywood, ever willing to ratify those good intentions and ignore those same results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBut \u003ci\u003eI Know Best\u003c\/i\u003e is not just about the Left.
