How ironic

[Capnball]

Just an observation from a Delaware Native - I could be wrong about this but, I've observed that Delaware has a lot of people that were not born and raised here that have done one of 2 things to us, particularly in NCC. They have planted themselves in our politics and have supported the destruction of personal liberty and economic strangulation or they have moved here from other Socialist Disaster States and supported the politicians and their big government policies. Delaware once had a low tax, business attractive reputation with a moderate position on most personal liberty issues. This scenario seemed to slowly unwind during the 1990s and we have become nearly as bad as our neighboring States with useless laws, economic stagnation caused by government interference and a growing population of dependency - A Socialist dream come true!

Excellent Capnball,
I am not a native, but I have lived here about 48 years, of the 67 years I've lived on Delmarva. Some years back, someone tried to get a movement to get Delmarva (south of the canal) made a seperate state. The Eastern Shore of MD and VA would seceed and join DE to become the State of Delmarva. That failed. Or, did it? Seems to me we are the Socialist State of Delmarva now.

Capnball is correct, as a lifetime De. resident, I have also seen the change. NCC is running De. politics, as NJ residents migrated here to avoid taxes and for our lower housing costs. Let's blow all the bridges and make Delmarva a state.
