Jackie, from one Schroeder to another living in MN, you are absolutely correct. We are blessed to live on one of the 10.000 lakes but the state is no where near what it was when we moved her 40 years ago. It was balanced and had strong Midwest middle class values. Not so much anymore.
From MN too here. We have seen how quickly things can change, for example believing that it is virtuous to avoid other people, but it can just as well go the other way. The only stability is to have solid integral values, could be a priority for God's values. It is the slowest and smallest immediate scope way forward, but strengthening relationships, communities and families that can resist unhealthy things and establish healthy things, all of that can change things. I live outstate, as they say, and there are so many basically good people with good common sense.
Yeah. The only good thing for myself is I live in a conservative county. Lots of people moving here from the cities though, bringing with them their woke ways. It will change and not for the better.
Just like MN. They have ruined this once beautiful state, (despite the weather).

I don’t see it coming back. What a shame.

From MN also. I have always loved my state but no longer. As with everything else I no longer recognize it. Governor is doing everything to ruin it.
