Red states are the poverty states

With the exception of West Virginia, these are all states with very high minority populations. Too bad we can't analyze that effect on these rankings.

 

Google "Who's More Generous, Liberals or Conservatives" and "The Fiscal Times".

People in the most conservative states gave the highest portion of their income to charity. People in the most liberal states gave the lowest portion of their income.

 

To be clear they are almost all GOP run states too

 

The red states tend to be part of the hate-America-first agenda of passing right-to-work-for-less laws: Low wages and poverty go hand-in-hand.

 

Yeah who wants the right to work

Most Affordable States In America

Thats why people move there to retire, that and the weather

 

There are only 20 Blue States, as there are 50% more Blue States, this unsurprising. The wealthy states have done fine under Obama, the Rich got Richer and the Poor got poorer, and revolted at the Ballot Box sending the Grifter packing.

Sad!

Trump whipped the Establishment of both Parties

 

So the poor live in republican states. And Trump won because he got the votes of the factory workers in the industrial belt.

In other words, republicans are the party which represents the poor and the middle class working man.
Democrats are the party of celebrities, liberal elites and those rich people who afford to live in expensive coastal homes.

 

Upstate NY is certainly redder than the city. So you are making fun of hardworking Americans? Wow! Libs----faux bougie party and definitely out of touch with reality. LOL I would much rather break bread with someone living "Americana style" than some arrogant Lib in NY or CA... no contest....

 

Talk about a delusional statement.

You've never visited south of the M/D, have you?

 

Ladies and gentlemen, meet the socialistic AlphaOmega.

 

"Shovel-ready was not as ... uh .. shovel-ready as we expected." Obama.
One of the Council on Jobs' recommendations to President Obama was to streamline the federal permit process for construction and infrastructure projects. It was explained to Obama that the permitting process can delay projects for "months to years ... and in many cases even cause projects to be abandoned.

Trump knows this and doesn't have to have it "explained" to him.

Help goes to the highest bidder.

 

Health insurance is not health care. No one's going to be turned away at a hospital because they don't have insurance. Maybe they can get jobs now under Trump and pay for their own insurance.

 

They do now, thanks to Obama.

Since 2009, when President Obama took office, his party has lost a total of 919 seats in state legislatures nationwide, according to NCSL data.
The Democrats’ prior advantage in the nation’s governors’ mansions when Obama took office has also been lost. There are currently 31 Republican governors, 18 Democratic governors and one Independent (Gov. Bill Walker of Alaska).

The Clinton/Obama trade deals effect every state negatively.

 

A leech is someone who expects you to pay for their health insurance out of your pocket.

 

Until just recently, Louisiana had been run by Democrats for over 100 years and was one of the most corrupt states in the country.

 

The blue states tend to get less than a dollar for every dollar given to the federal government,
while the dead beat red states tend to receive more than a dollar: wealth redistribution.

Cons are cons, whether be a Democratic con or a Republican con. Louisiana has been a
con state from Day One.

 

I don't think they are working very hard but in the meantime go upstate NY and enjoy yourself.

Not really; just lived in rural Georgia for 3 years. The main social gathering place was the local Huddle House.

 

So you don't support leftist wealth transfer schemes?

 

What do you think trickle-down economics is about? The redistribution of wealth from the poor and the middle class
to the rich.

Demand drives economic growth. Demand requires adequate capitalization, a fact supply-side socialists seem to ignore.

 

They're about the same poorest states when Johnson was president and instituted the grand give-a-way "war on poverty". Been real effective, hasn't it?

 

If the poor had wealth they wouldnt be poor.
