Who are the most socialist States?

[Mott the Hoople]

Interesting. The 6 of the ten most socialist States are Republican States.

interesting formula they used for that 'theory'.

 

[Phantasmal]

Alaska is probably one of the most socialist states.

 

[Rationalist]

Jesus Christ, where is Alabama spending their money?!

Anyway, I live in Washington and I can assure you it is not the least socialist state. Spending as a percentage of GDP may be low, but this could be attributed to the fact that we are a wealthy state. That doesn't mean the government here is small or efficient.

 

[Minister of Truth]

Emphasis on efficient.

According to the website...

a purely socialist state is one in which the state is responsible for 100% of economic output and spends all of it on social programs.

Since no part of the U.S. can be considered purely socialist, we measured total expenditures as a proportion of total economic output to compare the size of the public sector in each state.

Since the premise of what constitutes a socialist state is foolish the entire premise of the article is bogus....its bullshit from word one.
