I think that the teleportation thought experiment shouldn’t be reassuring to a conservative. Statistically, you’ll end up in rural Alaska, given its massive surface area. A lot of rural red areas have sky high unemployment and low wages. If you actually go to where the jobs are, getting a bad conservative education puts you at a disadvantage.
