@Gunny46 @TarHeelEer

Back to my original question. What have West Virginia’s Republican elected officials done to better the quality of life and improve the state’s national statistics? According to you, I live in a state run by socialist yet business in Virginia is booming. What have your elected officials done for you and the state that has earned them your trust and support? .

Booming?? LMAO

Virginia's growth in 2025 was 1.7%, a moderate rate that places it in the middle of the pack. Federal contracts, military, and datacenters fueled most of that growth. Forecasts for 2026 point to continued (but slower) GDP growth (e.g., around 0.5–1% in some outlooks), even aided with a 11.6% increase in datacenter and information processing.

All leads me to the question, if it's federal dollars and datacenters, what has Virginia's government done for you??

See this is what happens when you eat Toxic Crayons. I get you want to be cool like me but you should have asked me first. I would have told you to get the non-toxic ones.

West Virginians would rather eat beans and rice everyday than to live under the boot of the red/green alliance. They just demonstrated that to you in the previous election. Matter of fact I'm pretty confident they would hate your guts for trying to convince them otherwise.

Playing childish games again. Just Pathetic. You can’t answer the question so you deflect and dodge. And manipulate what I said by deleting important portions of my statement to fit your agenda. Sad. Just answer the question like a MATURE adult and not a child.

Continuing, on datacenters.

Yes, construction gets a boost. You have a temporary period of building a new building that you wouldn't have previously. Once the building is complete you have:

Positives:
  • A couple dozen + jobs to keep the datacenter running properly.
  • A tax collection for the county the datacenter resides.
Negatives:
  • Noise, light, water pollution - The levels vary per datacenter and explicitly what is impacted, but all 3 are impacted. In a rural area, this totally blows.
  • Jobs to a Big 5 IT company - Those jobs are more and more in India, and less and less in to US H1B's. They haven't went to Americans in 5 years.
What exactly is the great benefit?

Damn, I was looking forward to having a big BBQ with Beef, chicken, and pork.

Dogs and cats back on the menus.







I'm canning a pork butt tonight, and hopefully I'll have a deer to process in the morning. I've moved dry beans and rice from canning jars to 5 gallon buckets, better use of my space. Next deer I will be making bone broth as well, and then processing the bones down to meal for the garden. Circle of life and all that stuff.

Depending on the size they can have hundreds of full time employees. That's not counting the guys cutting the grass, mopping the floors, HVAC Calls, Plumber calls, Window Cleaner, or the Industrial Engineer. WTF he does when he's not here trying to convince us letting the CCP beat us in the AI race.

My biggest problems are the visas all leading to citizenship cutting the value of US labor. Those jobs you mention are great for the current illegals, and the more technical jobs go to Indians, either here or abroad. There's not much in it for US citizens at all right now. Thanks @Cheers, you're a swell feller with your full bank account.

Why is it so hard to answer the question? What have they done to improve the QOL for the citizens? Just one thing. You are so proud to be a red state yet you can’t identify one thing how they’ve made your life better.

The color revolution starting or a financial event will bring on the start of the chaos.

If it's the color revolution, communists and muslims will start rioting in cities just like we saw with BLM previously, but it will be much more intense and many more people. Supply to and from those cities will be disrupted. People will quit going to their downtown jobs altogether. Electric, water, and sewer will shut down. Outside of those cities, initially the impact won't be huge, giving you a nice window for final preparations, getting your people where you need them, etc. The supply chain will eventually break down there as well, causing a national crisis.

If it's financial, you will have little warning time. As the stock market showed yesterday, it can go quick. Jobs will be gone just as quickly as they sent us home for covid. It will be a national crisis from the start.

Municipal power, water, and sewer will cease to exist. People stuck in cities will die out in the first month. Some estimates have it at a 60-70% mortality rate after 3 months. Those last 30-40% will have to determine what the country looks like after that. I have a feeling DEI won't be a part of those plans.

I have been in Data Centers. I saw a bunch of white nerds wearing Birkenstocks. I didn't ask but I assumed they were virgins. I have concerns about AI too. My biggest one currently is the Democrats are now going to be picking the winners and losers with their regulations. I know who they plan on letting win and it's not us.

I know the Democrat ones that ran and lost wasted their money on people trying to get them elected. Turns out the people of WV were smart enough not to get Democrats elected to "teach the Republicans a lesson. Apparently they aren't a bunch psychopaths rooting for a Civil War.

Before someone calls you a Conspiracy Theorist that matches information and intelligence gathered from laptops and devices in the Middle East. It also defines the process of how a Color Revolution works. Not much different than what our own military and intelligence agencies are trained to do.

If you go through all of DataRepublican's stuff, what our intelligence and USAID is trained for, they've now turned on our country. The typical foreigners and Soros are funding it. I would've never thought US citizens would turn their country takeover tactics on our own.

Until the last year or so, I had only considered the financial crash, and it is STILL viable and on track. Our downfall is coming, it's just a matter of time. Musk's overabundance is the only refuge we may have. I can't bank on Musk saving the planet, so my first goal is for my family to flourish no matter what.

Lol. Fair enough. I didn’t expect an answer because honestly, there’s very little to write home about. The point I was making, is that WVs elected officials have done little to improve the QOL for its citizens and Don’t Deserve your support. They Don’t Deserve your loyalty. Having Billionaire Jim Justice holding town halls with Baby Dog is not helping you. It makes him and you look foolish. Not to be taken seriously. I WANT West Virginia to do well. I WANT the people of West Virginia to do well. The current regime is NOT getting you there. Hold Them Accountable. The Status Quo is Not Working. Just like WVU, West Virginia should NEVER be LAST in any rankings. It just frustrates me to no end to see WVU and WV the butt of jokes. Hopefully some younger, more forward thinking republicans and democrats can step up and make a difference. God Bless!!

I'm starting to warm up to the idea of it now that the Democrats will let you all off the hook. What's inside the mountain you don't want touched? Something you plan on sitting off in a US city the first chance you get?





BREAKING: Iran is now distributing iodine tablets to communities within a two to three kilometer radius of its sensitive nuclear facilities over fears of a US nuclear attack, a Health Ministry official confirms to The Times. "Yes, we are distributing iodine. Trump can no longer be trusted. He may go through with this crime," the official said. "Everyone knows that very little time remains. If America does not use a nuclear weapon against Pickaxe Mountain, it will be a miracle," an Iranian analyst with close ties to the IRGC said. Senior figures across the government, the IRGC and the regular armed forces expect Pickaxe to be among the principal targets of the coming war. Iraq activated nuclear emergency plans and border radiation monitoring yesterday.

If Republicans were going to control the House and Senate I was perfectly fine with what was already done to their Navy and Airforce then letting them sit there broke while we monitored the situation. Waiting on their people to rise up. Now we have to worry about what's in the Mountain and when do they plan on deploying it in city here.

She's not the decision maker on something like that. To put it nicely as I can nobody gives a **** what she would think. It also has nothing to do with how much it would help Isarel. I'm sorry people feel for that propaganda. They would come under attack in all directions immediately. If we moved all 8+million Jewa to Hawaii tomorrow Iran will still be a major problem while the Radical Socialist Jihadist are in charge.

What's in the Mountain. What cities are they planning on sitting it off. Why in the hell would the Democrats be ok with even the smallest of odds tbat could happen is what I would ask everyone to think about. Goes beyond suicidal empathy and gets really sick after that.

Like Neo-Nazis or Anarcho Capitalist? Going to need you to be a little more specific on what exactly it is you envision? Are talking about the Mitt Romney types? That's definitely not going to fly. He's really a Democrat. Libertarians types? There's a few in the State but that's never going to grow.

It is and it's a real thing. Unfortunately what I am seeing seems to go much darker and that's even when you remove Isarel from the equations. That was emotional propaganda slop pushed by Marxists and useful idiots. I get not wanting to land Troops like Iraq. So I give people concerned about that a small pass based on previous engagements or ignorance. But bombing nuclear enrichment sites, military sites, or even their leadership. That should have happened a long time ago.

Bro. Why do you ALWAYS go to the extremes. No, I’m not suggesting you elect extremists and you know that. Moderates!! That’s where EVERY state should be.

If you spent 1/10th the amount of time writing your representatives, as you do posting on this forum, you could really make a difference. Here are the names

Senators:

Jim Justice
Shelly Moore Capito

House:

Carol Miller
Riley Moore

Governor:

Patrick Morrisey

Allowing Democrats to get elected will show them? I get your point but the candidates you want aren't going to win elections. It will keep Democrats in Power and any number of foreign workers we brought in because their country invested in the product being produced will now be a flee on the *** to the open borders that return in 2028 if they get elected President.

I would prefer we invested in training for Americans to fill these jobs. Electing Democrats definitely isn't going to solve. More money going towards 4 year degrees in Gender Studies inbound. Your tax dollars on student loans that will never be repaid. 100x more foreign workers.
