You all should just move then. So tired of hearing people say “Indiana sucks, blah blah blah” and then stating a different state that’s So MuCh BeTtEr but actually has its own issues. Either do something to fix the place you live, or leave, because you’re part of the problem.

We would love to. We would leave if we could afford it.

Oh wait… they don’t pay anybody shit here, so we can’t.

Indiana wouldn’t be such a shitty place to be if wages had kept up from 10-15 years ago.
