Good video, my opinion is South Carolina sucks so hard I strongly suggest you look elsewhere, especially if you are of color... Every political figure is laughable corrupt, both black and white races still segregate, yes blacks... Look up national pan hellenic society aka BOULE... If anyone wants to debate me on this I have currently 5 federal lawsuits from civil rights infringements by the state agencies, I come from California so I'm not down with the good old boy systemic bullish.... If you white, you already have it good so why go to south carolina, it's like wasting your whiteness 😂 And humidity and bird size mosquitos are definitely not good things.. Do not come to south carolina, move to north carolina it's better there...

@nick Johnson why ask questions to the guy who hasn't been in South Carolina long enough to even go into detail(s) about the basic questions that you're asking? A "native" would have been more suggestible. He keeps saying "they"..."they"... "they"... and "I think."

HaHaHa! I'm a native Charlestonian, and back in the 80s there was a Georgian comedian that had this same concept in his monologue. My favorite of his is: "If you don't like how we do things down here, and you moved here from the North, then Delta is ready when you are." I said that to one of my co-workers, who every other word out of his mouth was 'back in ..., we did it this way'. He got mad at me and reported me. I told him that we don't like northerners telling us how to do things down here, and if you disliked where you lived before, then why did you move out of there and compare everything to your old hometown? We became friends after a time.

I was born in Summerville SC and received my education from the University of South Carolina. After graduating, I could never find a job in Columbia because I had no family heritage for the job. It became a place to work based on whom you knew. I was able to get jobs based on corporate ownership, When I was 46, I finally moved to North Carolina. Although I was born in SC, I never felt that I fit in. I finally made it to Winston Salem where I have retired. I discovered that there are community bands and orchestras here that I never found in South Carolina. I picked up my clarinet and saxophone and participated. I have felt more welcome here. To live in a place that makes you unwelcome is truly against the spirit in which this country was founded.

the thing about not being able to find a job bc you "had no family heritage for the job." what company didnt hire you that you think you didnt have family heritage for that specific job? im respectfully asking that is not at all rhetorical. im asking that bc Columbia SC (which you were looking for a job after graduating) is not known for old money and there are concert halls there and orchestra performing arts centers that welcome musical coaches and brass instrument players. especially recent graduates of USC. Columbia's Chamber of Commerce is FULL of business owners that own successful businesses that specialize in instrument sales and rentals. And if sales isnt really your thing, many members of the chamber can point you in the right direction. PLUS most of them are USC graduates. This information is easy to find. btw, everyone has a family heritage. unless youre a lab born baby (which is not common, but some ppl actually are born from blank cells and eggs in a lab , ) Columbia is renown for being a melting pot of all folks , from all different countries, almost maybe even more, students, even students without a college education after a USC graduation, you'd be hard pressed to run into someone you know, unless its a bar, five points *maybe.* but not someone that knows your baggage and is hiring. being a USC graduate plus in Cola as far as interviewing and looking for a career, would help you bc youre likely being interviewed by a USC alumni that talks about USC and asks things like "oh! does Professor Jones still teach over there?" K, so in a nutshell, youre lying. you dont have to have someone that knows your family to get a job interview in Cola unless its a family run business that keeps the place run by their family only, like a generational thing. you cant tell me that the Columbia Department of Transportation (just an example ) only hires people that have well known families, I mean "family heritages " Wells Fargo, Richland County Government, McDonalds. Most if not all of my dear friends knew that you cant be picky and we all knew that its very difficult to get your dream job immediately after college graduation . any job will do while actively applying for the career that you really want. dont blame SC for not getting hired by companies that aren't interested in your clarinet and saxophone talents. dont tell us a story that doesnt explain the whole truth. when you mentioned "not having a family Heritage for a "specific job" total red flag. Columbia is not a "who you know" city. and whats with the "jobs based on corporate ownership?" what does that even mean? You were able to get jobs based on you owning a corporation?! what was your major? and you did get "jobs" in Cola, according to you. So why are you saying you couldnt get a job and then say you did get jobs. waiting until 46 to move bc SC makes you feel "unwelcome " is unnerving to SC natives. If SC, particularly , our capital city is that bad, why did you continue to stay there? If 134, 100 people made you feel unwelcome, its not them, its you.

How can someone new to SC know how great SC is. I've lived here all my life and I love it here. How can you say the the people here don't care about bettering themselves and are content to live in poverty. That is totally absurd and not true. I thought this video was going to be a tribute to SC. Instead it was a slam on our great state and very derogatory. If SC is so bad why are people moving here in droves. Here in the upstate the housing industry is booming because of the influx of people moving South. Its a great state.

Growing up in NJ, I can attest more taxes funding education does NOT mean better schools. Heck, I've compared rural & suburban middle class NJ schools in Gloucester, Salem, Cumberland, Camden, Atlantic, Burlington, & Cape May counties in NJ, to (SC schools near Charlotte) Fort Mill, Clover, Rock Hill, Indian Land, Lewisville & (SC schools near Myrtle Beach) of Carolina Forest, St. James, Waccamaw, Aynor, Socastee, Green Sea, North MB, & MB. Many of these South Carolina school districts are equal to or far exceed the schools in NJ that are soaking taxpayers. Heck, the schools in Fort Mill, SC are Nationally Ranked & people are falling over themselves to move into FM as a middle class town in large part because of the schools. With only Charlotte metro magnet schools & the most affluent pockets of the Charlotte metro having higher rankings. When it comes to quality public schools it's 1/4 engaged parents, 1/4 engaged teachers, 1/4 tax revenue collected, & 1/4 HOW EFFICIENTLY that tax rev was spent. Time & time again it's been shown that the poorer the community the less parent engagement (usually because of work or family situations), the less parent engagement the lower teacher engagement as they get burned out, also poor communities usually don't have a good tax rev base to draw from, then you have the normal wildly inefficient use of the funds common in public schools. Sadly poor communities usually have issues in all four areas.

It's also underfunded by the state. So it has bad road conditions and a higher crime rate. It's also very isolated too. Not much for tourists. The only thing it has is Beachwood farms.

Construction jobs still go begging and of course retail & hospitality can't hire fast enough. Apartment developments (with pools and other amenities) are springing up everywhere. This place is booming. As far as education is concerned, your opportunities are what you make of them. There are magnet schools, charter schools and private schools that aren't expensive. The suburban public schools are doing well. Urban schools.....not so much and the funding formula is the same for both (no property taxes here). As far as the politics changing.....Jaime Harrison got trounced and most of his money came from out of state.

I was raised in the lowcountry (Colleton County) and currently live in Rock Hill. This video is 100 percent accurate. Living in the rural lowcountry vs living in Rock Hill near Charlotte is like night and day. In most towns in SC (with the exception of the larger cities), everything is closed after 9 or 10pm. No night life outside of a restaurant bar here or there. Growing up in rural Colleton county, the closest gas station near our home was 7 miles away. Most people who live in rural SC, especially the lowcountry….the family has definitely been there for generations as stated in this video. Most of the people who dislike this video are the older ones stuck in their old ways.

This state has always been backwards. It's not a compliment. Just because it's all you've known or you like it doesn't make it a good or right thing. One place, one mindset, one experience is not indicative of the entire state. We desperately need change. Should look to the errors of other states and not make those mistakes but doesn't mean we don't need change!

I've lived on Hilton Head Island for 34 years (and Charleston for a year), and i can tell you that living here is the best! Only issue now (thanks to timeshares) is that too many tourists drive like shit here, don't tip our F&B people properly, and just don't respect the rules. You feed a gator and then wonder why it tries to attack you? LoL. Charleston's nice, but if you want to visit the jewel of SC, come to Hilton Head Island.

I relocated to Orangeburg six years ago. I took care of my aunt for five of those years. It is the worst place in the World. There are no high tech jobs, everything is food based. There are no movie theaters. Bad customer service everywhere if the person is a local. Very poor people live here. I can't wait to leave as they would like me to go as well. Crime is a constant. Shootings, theft and murder seems like a hobby to some.

I appreciate this video bringing light to some real issues in my area. (Pee Dee resident here) I do take issue with a couple of statements. 1. Voting republican vs democrat would have some meaningful change but it doesn't. A lot of us that are working adults that grew up skew more libertarian vs. partisan 2. School funding would improve educational outcomes? You approach issues in a lot of the video about residual effects of parents choices to the next generation. I think this is the dominant force. One of your interviews speaks to this because just do whatever to get by (government programs) thus setting a low bar for themselves. I want to break that mindset as much as anyone. Financial education is much needed here. Check cashing/title loans/pawn shops per capita is crazy

I think there’s a misconception about the south switching from Dem to Rep because of racism. The Dems were the original slavery lovers. The KKK was an arm of the Dems. People switched because they saw the left getting away from Christian values and the Dems desire to grow the government. There are other reasons but racism is hardly one of them. Awesome video by the way. Please do Ohio and Kentucky. My two favorite states.

I am a NY Native who has lived in South Carolina for several years. McMaster is WAY above Gov. Hochul, Mario Cuomo or his son. SC is a no BS run state with low taxes. I am enjoying my 1K/year property tax bill. That's what my parents paid on Long Island in the mid 1970s! The schools my daughter attended down here are a LOT better than the ones I went to in NY as a child.
