New Jersey and New York Ranked as Worst States for "Individual Freedoms"

Sounds like Dumb Yankee lives in a restrictive environment, beset on all sides by burdensome bureaucratic regulations that limit his freedom-loving lifestyle.

They aren't boogey men. They're just guys that run environmentally destructive businesses and prefer a regulatory environment that allows them to run their environmentally destructive businesses without having to pay for the harm that they cause and they put their tremendous wealth toward that end through the promotion of think tanks and the like that churn out the academic drivel that serves their business interest. It's just the way it is.

You must have taken lessons from Topdope. After his "trailer" insults ran flat he asserted that I was poor, then found out my AGI was much higher than his. Are you now challenging me there as well? :)

It must be nice to decide what business are worthy of your support and which ain't. You're sorta like a god.

You're the one who said they are nice to people with full wallets but not to you. Aren't you?

I traveled through NH many times and the local cops were notorious for padding the town coffers with traffic ticket revenue. I got stopped for running a yellow at 2am with no traffic and a friend of mine got arrested for passing on the right. They also have State liquor sales set up in an island of the interstate at the border with Massachusetts to get out-of-state sales. As long as your wallet is full and open they are very friendly people.

Is this the sort of 'grasping' you do, Dumb Yankee?

That is, when you're not grasping at straws?
 
The politics of the Northeast are very fascinating. On the one hand, you have NY which went left/Dem a lot sooner than its neighbors. Massachusetts beat New England to the punch. Even though NH, Maine and Connecticut, but especially Vermont, have gone left, they remain very libertarian, and afford the people a lifestyle which they have come to expect. I don't know much about Deleware, except that it is incredibly business friendly, the way Kansas and South Dakota are, so I imagine its politics are a lot like New Hampshire.

You're still not using the correct format, Dumb Yankee.

Is 'Dumbass' what your web-wives call you around the cyber-shack?

New Hampshire's state politics seem to have swung back to the right. Depending on how their seats are gerrmandered, though, it may have simply been a case of going from 55% Democrat in one election to 45% in another.
