If I wanted to live in a crime-ridden area covered with
dirt and grime, I'd move to the country in a red-state.
It's a fact that states with Democratic leadership have
generally better stats in all major areas: lower unemployment,
better access to education and healthcare, higher median
incomes. For every buck and a quarter my state kicks to
the federal government, we get back 85 cents. That is,
we are _net_ exporters of money. Compare to Kentucky, which
gets back a dollar for every 85c they kick in: this pattern
repeats all over.
If the right-wing were made to stop sucking on the federal
teat, they'd be way worse off.
