Why boycotting Arizona is a bad idea

Advertisements [?]

I truly believe that this State is slowly turning blue.

We're working on it.

But if you boycott our State, my feeling is that most of the jobs, mostly in tourism and services, will be likely for jobs hiring people with higher education or hiring more females, two demographics where democrats are in the majority.

Blue collar jobs are no more. There was a resurgence in blue collar jobs due to the construction bubble but a lot of the folks employed by this industry have moved out.

Just give us some time. To paraphrase somebody else: "Shut the f... up! We got it!"
