Virginia is the Roach Motel

Millions of dollars of taxpayer money have been spent on the "Virginia is for Lovers" motto. But former residents of the state associate Virginia more with the slogan for the Roach Motel; you can check in but you can't check out. More specifically, Virginia is happy to have you as a new state resident but is unwilling to let go of your wallet if you try to relocate to another state.
