Who knows.. Maybe your outlandish accusations will be correct.
But, everyone will be so dumb they won't know the difference.
Take, for example, the conservative utopia that is Mississippi:
30 percent scoring as "Level 1" on the National Assessment of Adult Literacy conducted by the DOE
Oh, and they will be
so poor that they could care less about laws.. Add drugs into the mix with the draconian Neocon form of imprisonment without rehabilitation and I am sure that it will be a short lived experiment.
I would rather have a deficit issue!
Uh...ya know that Mississippi, as well as ALL the southern states to some extent are STILL suffering from the ravages of a little something known as Radical Reconstruction...right? I mean, you DO remember the War of Northern Aggression? You probably call it the Civil War, but it was followed by, nearly 50 years of OCCUPATION under the name of Reconstruction and then Radical Reconstruction in which Yankee carpetbaggers came south and raped the south under the protection of the union army.
Mississippi was one of the WORST ravaged and OPPRESSED by the "help" the north supplied the south. You MIGHT want to get an actual clue about the REAL history of this country and how it effects the present before blindly posting skewed statistical data as proof of some malformed political theory by political hack blogers!
I'd start with a fella named Jefferson Davis and what he did after the war to gain some insight into why that might be. But hey, I doubt that's going to happen. It will NOT be found on some blog or huffington post!
By the way, Washington, DC (17 grand) spends TWICE what Mississippi (8 grand) does on education per student and graduates nearly 20% FEWER students...61% to 43%! And it's the same with every one BUT 1 of the top 5 spenders...BLUE STATES ALL!
Of the top 5 spenders, 4 are at or near the bottom in performance and graduation and the 5th, New York has lowered it's graduation standards so low that less than 12% of 80% it graduates can actually pass entry exams to get into college!
So I'd be tickled as hell to let you liberals piss good money after bad...as long as it's not mine...and take my chances with our "conservative utopia" to get shed of the Department of Education and put the education and rearing of our kids back where it belongs...in our homes and home towns!
LOL. Since we in the blue states are supporting you lazy asses in the red states at present, were we to split the nation according to the blue and red states, you fellows are the ones that would starve. No more liberals to support your lazy asses.
PolitiFact | 'Red State Socialism' graphic says GOP-leaning states get lion's share of federal dollars
My god some of you people are CLUELESS!
First, Politifact is full of shit or should I say the data from the Tax Foundation used to produce that bull is! NO STATE gets more money from the fed than they pay...NONE. The AVERAGE across the entire country is about .10 cents of every dollar collected by the fed makes it back to the states. THAT is the politically inconvenient FACT.
That crap was proven bogus back when it came out in 2007 and liberals tried to use it in the run up to the elections. They skewed the data by only counting Income Tax as contributions from states, but included everything from Social Security, unemployment and UNFUNDED mandated spending as federal payouts. That's right, they counted money that wasn't even SENT.
By the way, reds states DO get more federal funds as a percentage of the total pie and that is because there are MORE RED STATES BY A MILE!
Next, let's see, the "red states" are also know as something else. What is it? Oh yeah, THE BREAD BASKET!!!
Our lazy red state asses FEED 60% of the entire WORLD! 20% of EVERY GALLON of gas you pump into your Prius comes from corn ethanol grown by our lazy asses! Over 1/2 of all automobiles still built in this country are built by our lazy asses...INCLUDING the Prius which is built in MISSISSIPPI! You know, that state Liberal says he can do without?
On the other hand, blue state jackwagons are so piled on top of each other they can't even feed the people in their own states. A few cabbages can't feed a country...even a TINY country. Hell, Commifornia has to get the water it uses to grow crap from other states...RED states!
Liberals need to shut all this kind of noise up...unless they just enjoy having their extreme ignorance expose publicly!
But hey, I'll be glad to keep doing the whack-a-mole thing. It's just mind over matter. I don't mind and they don't mater. ;~0
