    Exactly. My grandparents moved here in the 30s to make a better life for their families, not to see their grandkids unable to afford schooling or insurance.

    I know that Clemson is a small area of the South, and I do my best not to judge the entire region based on it. However, I live less than 2 hours from Chicago, less than an hour from Gary, and only a few hours from Detroit. Elkhart, IN had the highest unemployment rate in the country for a long time, and it is only 30 minutes away. All I'm saying is that things could very well be much worse here than they are now.

    PS: Trey: You are a big man for actively considering the opinions of other people, and not simply getting angry to defend your beliefs. I just wanted to say thank you for that, and I applaud your character.
