Utah is learning.. TOLLERANCE? - a podcast by Jeff Caplan, KSL Newsradio

We’ve hoped and prayed that Americans would become more tolerant.  In a country where the majority of Democrats say they wouldn’t marry a Republican.  And vice versa… all I want is a world where we can talk about … and respect our differences.  And apparently here in Utah… we’re making progress.  Proof..comes from a new survey.

3-thousand families responded to a survey by   familydestinationsguide.com

They were asked… if you were going to up anchor and move your family… where would you most want to go.

Families here in Utah chose Hawaii.  Fantacizing about lapping waves, sandy beaches, coconuts falling fresh from the tree… Utahns would choose gentle breezes, the aloha spirit, and paradise among the palms.

But Utah… you know what lurks behind all of those palm trees?

Democrats.  Hawaii has more democrats than ukeleles…. and yet still.  given the entire world to choose from, Utahns - who are among the most Republican people on earth - would raise their kids in Hawaii.  To live under the thumb of a democratic governor.  Congressional Delegation.  Legislature.  A place that taxes out of staters an extra 7 percent when they buy property.  An outrageous confiscation of wealth.

Unless you add in some palm trees… then maybe it's okay.  Proof …we are becoming more tolerant.
