Indeed. but metro Atlanta area itself is very progressive.
- williamsmj 9y agoTrue, but I'm not referring here to whether the local community is politically progressive. The issue isn't whether there is nice record shops and an NPR affiliate. I'm referring to the real possibility that Atlanta might become subject to laws that pretty much every corporation in America would consider a major downside when choosing where to site a HQ. I assume this is what they are referring to in the CFP when they talk about the "political stability" of a region.

- williamsmj 9y ago> That probably excludes anywhere outside of the NE or West Coast. ding ding ding! My bet would be on Pittsburgh. Maaaaybe Minneapolis, Madison, Detroit or Philadelphia.
- jtmcmc 9y agoprobably not madison considering the government there. I'm also betting on pittsburgh or perhaps minneapolis.
- BatFastard 9y agoI am not familiar with Pittsburgh, but I was born in Minneapolis area. Great government, great people, but damn the winters are COLD.
- midnitewarrior 9y ago> and an NPR affiliate Just one NPR affiliate? We've got 2! Some of our politicians are from the stone age though.
- ynniv 9y agoGeorgia is home to 17 Fortune 500 companies and a burgeoning film industry, it's not as "politically unstable" as you think. Mostly, money talks.
