Child Mortality In The U.S. Should Be Going Down, But It’s Rising.

Lafayette’s homocide rate is 50% higher than Los Angeles.

The black population in Lafayette is 300% higher than Los Angles

 

[multivita-man]

You ignore the cause of suicides, which is our crazy, toxic liberal culture

And toxic culture of conservative shame.

Ditto for homicides

Its not the gun, its the culture of single moms

It's probably a little of both, though I don't think single moms per se are the problem. Known plenty of single mom households that are better off without the man. There are some single mom's, however, that are not prepared to be moms, financially, emotionally, or otherwise, and they grow up in neighborhoods where too many people are like that.

Is that like gay on gay crime?

 

[Marener]

The black population in Lafayette is 300% higher than Los Angles

The city is run by Republicans.
Which means it shouldn’t have any crime by your belief system.

I agree that single mom households are caused in part by low standards of men that these welfare moms procreate with

But the women have the power over that

 

[Marener]

The actual answer here is that crime and death tracks closely with poverty and the worst poverty is in the Deep red deep South.

Yes, its been repub since 2004

 

[Polishprince]

There are things that America COULD do, that would reduce gun deaths among youths, but libs aren't interested.

This isn't about anyone dying, its about CONTROL over the people and giving people enough hassle that they give up on the idea of self defense.

A couple of ideas might me requiring Mandatory Age Appropriate Gun Safety courses from kindergarten right up through the penitentiary level.

Another would be requiring assault weapons be kept behind the counter so kids can't boost them, and required a signed note from a minor's mother before selling any of these weapons to kids- just like we do with cigarette sales.

 

[Marener]

Yes, its been repub since 2004

You need to open your mind up to factors that aren’t as simple as dem v rep.

Seriously. It’s pathetic.

Dem policies are very bad and do the most to contribute to poverty and crime

But certainly repubs have made mistakes too such as embracing trade with china

The Republicans are telling you this to keep you locked into the partisanship that keeps them in power.

The truth is that red states are failing in so many ways. High crime. High poverty. Terrible health. Rampant substance abuse. Rising suicide. Low economic achievement.

If what you said were true, blue states wouldn’t lead the country in GDP, health, and a dozen other vitally important statistics.

We have problems with crime in blue states. We are trying to figure out how to deal with it.

You won’t even admit you have a problem that you can’t blame on someone else.

Thanks to decades of scientific advances, we have the ability to save the lives of infants born months prematurely, prevent infectious diseases and effectively treat previously fatal conditions such as diabetes, leukemia and HIV/AIDS.

“We identified four causes of death that seemed to be the main drivers of this trend: suicide, homicide, drug overdoses and car accidents,” Woolf said.
snip
“Drug overdose deaths are highest in white children, generally speaking; car crash accidents [are] highest in Native American young people; and the homicide rates [are] markedly higher in African American youth,” Woolf said.
snip
In these rising homicide deaths, the weapon is almost always a gun. Guns are also the cause of almost half of suicide deaths in young people ages 10 to 19.

Of youth gun deaths, about two-thirds are homicides and one-third are suicides, Sarah Burd Sharps, senior director of research at Everytown for Gun Safety, told HuffPost.

In 2020, shootings overtook car accidents as the number one cause of death for U.S. children and teens.

Nearly one time every day, a child somewhere in the United States, under 17 but often 2, 3, 4 and 5 years old, gets their hands on a gun and unintentionally shoots themselves or someone else.”

Thats really an eye opener.

Stop smoking crack during pregnancy and BAM live healthy birth.

Problem solved

 

[multivita-man]

Basically, it's fentanyl + gun violence + suicide + deteriorating physical health.

 

[XponentialChaos]

Hopefully it's higher in red states.

Can't share a country with this

Actually, after looking into this, it actually is.

That is bullshit...the only thing propping up the blue states is California and the tech giants...and they are now fleeing blue state California for Red States.....and the mass migration out of blue states show you are either a liar, or a clueless buffoon........

Now it’s true that the average taxpayer in blue states pays a higher per capita income tax than the average taxpayer in red states. But that’s because those states — particularly Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and California — have more rich people. Don’t the Democrats want the rich paying their fair share?

As for blue states allegedly getting back less, what numbers are they looking at? It is true that red states receive 35.75 percent on average of their budgets from the federal government, while blue states receive 30.80 percent.

But this is because the blue states’ budgets are far larger due to all the bloat and waste.

The 10 states in the best fiscal condition are almost all red states.

The 10 states with the worst numbers in the red are almost all blue states.

The higher the taxes, the more mismanaged a state is. CNBC examined the infrastructure of every state — roads, airports, water systems and ports — and found that the places with the worst-rated infrastructure are six Democratic states, which also rank among the highest in taxes collected per resident: Connecticut, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York.

Kyle Sammin at The Federalist found that if you look at the amount of money the federal government gives to states on a per capita basis instead, blue states get more; $2,124 per resident. Red states receive just $1,879 on average.

Matt Palumbo writing at The Dan Bongino Show found that even if red states receive more in federal welfare, it’s not going to Republicans. Those on public assistance, as well as long-term unemployment, are overwhelmingly Democrats.

Ok here we go

You think you are the only smart one in the room, with all the answers, while everyone else is simply stupid and ignorant

Go play in traffic

I can plainly see the mistakes that both parties make and dems are the worst

You don't know what you are talking about........not unusual with a leftist like you.....

Our recent analysis of U.S. Census Bureau data revealed that blue states like California, New York, and Massachusetts have substantially higher levels of wage and income inequality than red states like Indiana, Missouri and West Virginia. In blue states, a higher proportion of the population has a college degree and is employed in high-paying managerial or professional positions, while those without a college degree work increasingly in low-paying service industry jobs.

But remnants of a manufacturing base that no longer exists in blue states can be found in red states, where there does seem to be a working middle class; Republican-led states have a higher percentages of workers whose highest level of educational attainment is a high school diploma in large part because an economic base still exists providing skill-matching employment opportunities in industries like manufacturing. And many of those people are living solidly middle-class lives.

How Blue States Became Unequal—and Red States Got the Middle Class

It might surprise you to learn that it is liberals who live in the most unequal states in America while many Republican-led counties have a strong middle class.

You either simply don't know what you are talking about, or you are lying.....

But what happens when Republicans aren’t standing in the way?

In many states — including California, New York and Illinois — Democrats control all the levers of power. They run the government. They write the laws. And as we explore in the video above, they often aren’t living up to their values.


In key respects, many blue states are actually doing worse than red states. It is in the blue states where affordable housing is often hardest to find, there are some of the most acute disparities in education funding and economic inequality is increasing most quickly.

Instead of asking, “What’s the matter with Kansas?” Democrats need to spend more time pondering, “What’s the matter with California?”

You make this too easy......

Seven months into the coronavirus crisis, the states with the most severe unemployment in the country all seem to have one thing in common: They vote blue.

In September, just eight states had jobless rates that were significantly higher than the nation as a whole, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Each of them—New Mexico, Massachusetts, New York, Illinois, Rhode Island, California, Nevada, and Hawaii—backed Hillary Clinton in 2016, and all but Massachusetts had a Democratic governor.* These states did not suffer from unusually high unemployment rates before the pandemic began, but now are facing rates ranging from 9.4 percent up to 15.1 percent, compared with 7.9 percent nationally.
