Democrat voters hired a President that was senile, then played along when it was obvious he was a mush brain fool. You all may want to sit this one out.
My wife and I have been empty Nesters for a while now. Sold off our main house and Did something I said I’d never do. Bought a condo. The main reason for doing this was avoiding lawn care and snow removal duties. I was very capable of doing it (still am) but looked into the future knowing I won’t always be. A decade later were very pleased with the move. At the same time we were able to pay off our lake place which we pretty much spend our entire summers at. That being said I live very close to my two kids (and grand kids) who both have their own homes. Due to us having a smaller place they now have the honor of hosting us for family gatherings instead of the other way around. If you’re going to be the one hosting holidays etc. downsizing might not be the best option. If not, I’d certainly recommend it.
One study says it’s a wash while the other says plus one for democrats. So the data we have in front of us would show that red states didn’t benefit while blue states most likely did.
