Alabama is the poster child of failed GOP policies. I was raised there and every time I go back I wonder why anyone stays. It's second to last on every list of qualities that make a state worth living in.
Maybe it is because they EARN a living, instead of DEMANDING something.
Look at it this way--------------> see all that green paper known as money in New York! Well, what if I said no more food from the heartland-) How much would those stacked upon LEFTISTS in New York be willing to pay for food, when in 36 hours they are dry! Oh, maybe you could trade with RUSSIA! But I bet they would want some coal, or maybe oil, lol. Funny how when you are in deep-doo, your whole attitude on what is really important would change.
I am not an evil person, but to shut the coasts up, I would starve them out, which would take around 15 minutes-)
