    Hard to invalidate the fact that when comparing federal tax dollars collected to federal money received, Red States get back more money from the Federal Gov’t than do Blue States. No matter how one wants to reframe the statistics, the Blue States pay more and get less in return, and the opposite hold true for Red States

    As far as “shitholes,” no matter how one wants to phrase it, in most categories usually judged as negative, the majority of Red States fall at the top of the lists, while again, the opposite holds true for Blue States that have all those supposedly urban “shitholes”

    And lastly, America, and its’ history, isn’t defined by its rural landscapes, few if any come here to visit the fields of Indiana, Kansas, nor Mississippi

    Until, as I pointed out, you remove expenses that aren't based on population or discretionary. States don't get to choose how much military spending goes to their state. Nor can they choose how much spending for federal land and things like national parks go to them. So simply using how much money a state pays in as federal tax versus the total federal spending in return is a meaningless figure.

    We're obviously not capping one another enough in Boston.
    People will say that we're un-American.

    Won't be much activity in the streets this week, either.

    Hellhole so-called red states absolutely, especially as a result of repuke leadership enabling the spread and increase in covid-19 infections that has the potential of spreading nationally and beyond. Obviously repukes do not care about anyone, including the idiots that vote for them against their own interests who are ultimately at fault for the current threat against the well being of society and humanity at putting seditious, insane and destructive repukes in office.

    bs and 2017 statistics are stale data. Yet as of 2021 adjustment, currently the top ten states with the highest poverty rate and of course mostly so-called red or repuke led states:

    Here are the 10 states with the highest poverty rates:
    New Mexico (18.63%)
    West Virginia (17.54%)
    Kentucky (16.67%)
    Arkansas (16.36%)
    Alabama (16.13%)
    Oklahoma (15.00%)
    Tennessee (14.36%)
    Georgia (14.11%)

    https://worldpopulationreview.com/st...-rate-by-state

    Here are the 10 richest states, and all blue states:

    New York ($88,349)
    Massachusetts ($85,400)
    Washington ($81,059)
    Connecticut ($79,824)
    California ($78,771)
    Delaware ($77,214)
    New Jersey ($70,501)
    Maryland ($70,500)
    North Dakota ($70,185)
    Illinois ($69,667)

    It started originally that way back in like the 80's and has just remained so since.

    Republicans are red,
    Democrats are blue,
    Doesn't that seem
    Backwards to you?
