Our new series, “Dynamic Delaware: 2000-2025,” offers several angles on how the First State has changed dramatically in the first quarter of this century. Would you say it has been for better or worse? What have you noticed most during the past 25 years and how has it impacted your life?
Delaware has gone from an affordable state to moving into Delafornia. It used to have a number of great businesses, which helped keep taxes low and costs affordable. Twenty-five years of Democrat rule has ruined this state. Businesses are leaving, and all the retirees who have come will eventually leave due to the higher costs of taxes and utilities. — Rick Kerchevall
Delaware is a state with no leadership, following every other blue state failure. — Kirk Bailey
“Livable Delaware” didn’t quite work out, eh? — Greg Doyle
My expenses are much more than my benefits. — Katie Wood
I lived and worked in Dover for nearly 60 years, and Delaware has failed in almost every way. There’s poor infrastructure, and the capital city can’t seem to get any intelligent road program started or finished. The opioid and homelessness problems are not being addressed. Democrat-led government is now upside-down for hundreds of millions of dollars. It’s a true disgrace. — Glenn Deaton
The state has shifted even further left, bringing on higher taxes, higher fees and higher general costs. — Dennis Mehrenberg
