RED and BLUE - are they really that different?

[bill718]

Lost in all the hissing and ugly soundbites between Conservatives and Liberals here is an interesting fact.

Their states are not so very different.

Take for example Conservative Texas and Liberal California. Both share a border with Mexico, and both have some interesting similarities:

Crime Rate per 1000 residents:
Texas 4.26 | California 4.69

Education ranking:
Texas 42nd | California 38th

Income Ranking: Texas 43rd | California 6th - Understandable since it costs more to live in CA

Whatever side you're on folks, just be aware that the other side is doing at least as good as you!

Actually, they are only 125 uM difference on the EM spectrum.

A mere 122 THz apart from each other.

The DNC & RNC are 1st cousins. Vote for the candidate NOT the political party.

Since there are almost 300 election deniers in the GOP they are running for all kinds of jobs. If they win look at democracy to come to an end. They are different.

So far, we have been able to identify 345 candidates who will be on the ballot in November who have expressed election denial beliefs—false claims that the presidential election in 2020 was flawed.

Marxists want to destroy America and make it a 3rd world nation. Patriots want to save this country from Marxists from destroying this nation. Quite a big difference there...But it takes someone with intelligence to realize this.

Sep 16, 2021 - After years of voting to suspend the debt limit under Republican Presidents, Congressional Republicans have changed their tune, and are now refusing to work with Democrats to ensure that America can pay its bills on time. Raising or suspending the debt limit does not authorize new...

Nope, they each fanatically believe that government is the answer to all their woes, their hopes, dreams, and desires.

VERY different in what they say!

VERY similar with their results!

Progs spend all their time figuring out how deceive others in the public eye. If they spent that time in private life or business, we all would be many times better off in health and living. The argument is that the way we elect candidates has been compromised by using the system against itself for political gain.

There are no "Marxists" so your entire post is a lie.

Comparing Red States to Blue States the only positive for red states is cost of living.

Red States:
-Bad health/Obesity
-Bad education/Ignorance
-Bad public services/crappy roads/lame art
-High poverty
-High government handouts
-Low incomes
-Poor healthcare systems
-Low economic output
-Sky high murder rates
-Sky high cop deaths

Their land is cheap because of the above. If you are ok with all that you can get a deal in a red state. Texas has twice the land as California so go get a big cheap house and crank out dumb obese kids.

I had to look it up:
Texas is about 68% bigger than California. The area of Texas is 268,597 square miles and California is 163,696 square miles. By population, California has about 35% more people than Texas at 29.2 million vs California at 39.5 million.Jul 10, 2022

How Big is Texas? You Won't Believe How Huge It Is!​

Conservative leaders are not effective managers of public resources or needs. Greg Abbott is a prime example.

Instead of dealing with the problems of the Texas electrical grid - insufficient capacity, not weather hardened, and no access to national grid, Abbott is banning abortion and expanding access to guns, despite Texas having one of the highest rates of mass shootings in the country.

And the Uvalde shooting??? NOTHING has been done. Not even a public enquiry into why all those cops did nothing while that pig terrorized and murdered those children.

You have to know that the left left is getting desperate, when, in their own defense, the best they can do is cherry pick one or two metrics, and point to those few metrics and say “See? The other side is almost as bad as us!”.

If you think that's what is happening, you're falling for Trump's con. Of course you voted for him twice, so you're fell for the con years ago, and continue to believe in the lying idiot, despite all reasonable evidence that he's a liar, a crook, and a traitor to his country.
