Most red states would be third world countries without fiscal transfers and technological spillovers from blue states. There ain't much doubt about that. Hold them up as superior to blue states all you want. But it won't change that sad fact.
If I were as unwilling to answer direct questions about direct situations as you were, I'd be embarrassed enough to look at my process.
I could answer any question you want. California has many failings. With respect to homelessness, housing regulations, education, etc. So does every blue state. But public policies in blue states generate far superior outcomes than what we see in red states. So find all the flaws you want in blue states. Thangs are simply better in those states than red states. And the explanation has much more to do with policy than the excuses y'all offer about luck, weather, demographics, etc.
figured this would where the tap out would be
My metrics are health outcomes like life expectancy, educational attainment, worker productivity. By those blue states lap red states. Whose main claim to superior policy rests upon very generous federal transfers facilitated by tax payments from blue states.
Im not asking about the life expectancy of the average person.
Lol go read the covid thread
Falling rents are good for the right reasons.
