22 Reasons why the Red State are not the moochers
Left Wing Economist Paul Krugman says “Richer states subsidize poorer states.” and “a vast swath of the heartland that includes just about every state that voted for Donald Trump”. He thinks that Republican Voters are welfare moochers. “So if you really believe that Americans with higher incomes shouldn't pay for benefits provided to those with lower incomes, you should be calling on "donor" states like New Jersey and New York to cut off places like Kentucky and let their economies collapse.”
1 he is arguing against his own far left economic ideas just because the left believes that Heartland Americans are inferior people
2 he is a typical despicable left wing regional bigot
3 he is twisting the facts
4 he is attempting to us the 51% electoral college results to project individual voter incomes in Heartland states
5 he is saying that Democrats should support the poor only if they vote for far left wing extremist Democrats such as Barry the Magnificent
6 he is using the total amount each state receives in federal spending instead of the much more accurate per-capita spending
7 he doesn't take into account state population size differences
8 he is not accounting for huge geographic size differences, which affect transportation spending
9 he is making the assumption that everyone in Red States votes GOP
10 he is really just saying that he loathes Heartland Americans, but the most middle class America Voters are already very aware that they are loathed by the Left
11 he is assuming that all poor white people vote GOP
12 in far left economics the middle class is the most hated, the middle class workers are turned into the government's slaves
13 Left Wingers who want everyone to pay higher taxes should shut-up until they stop taking any of their tax deductions
14 he is not accounting for states that have military bases
15 the majority of GOP Voters are middle and upper class taxpayers who do not use the welfare programs
16 we never hear GOP politicians or GOP voters demanding more welfare
17 he is undermining the idea that Liberals are compassionate for the poor
18 he is not taking into account state tax deductions that lower federal taxes
19 he has proven once again that the Nobel Prize is really just a gag gift
20 middle class people who vote Democrat are the dumbest people on our planet
21 white voters have an 8% poverty rate so even if 100% of them voted GOP they would only be a small percentage of the total
22 the majority of middle class voters, Christian voters, white voters, midwest voters, southern voters, suburban voters, Wasp Voters........vote GOP and those are the people who the Left Wingers loath, and those voters are very aware of it
KRUGMAN: The moochers of Middle America
Take the case of Kentucky. In 2017, the state received $40 billion more from the federal government than it paid in taxes. That's about one-fifth of the state's GDP; if Kentucky were a country, we'd say that it was receiving foreign aid on an almost inconceivable scale.
That’s from your link. Where are the facts twisted?
You’re the one twisting the facts.
Take the case of Kentucky. In 2017, the state received $40 billion more from the federal government than it paid in taxes.
That's outrageous!!!
We should immediately slash federal spending to stick it to those red states.
You must have a list of spending cuts that you've been pushing for since 2008 or earlier.
Why don't you share it with the thread?
