    All those red counties that republicans love to point out during presidential elections equals 30% of this countries wealth. 2500 counties out of 3000.

    This is the worlds lone super power, a couple years ago we had the greatest economy in history and it was all blue. You are the economic crumbs we wipe off on our pants.

    Since you're so smart, care to explain why so many businesses are relocating to Texas?
    Once they’ve used all the resources in blue states to become successful why do they move to a place that lowers taxes to entice them there? That’s seriously your question?

    Why are there so many more businesses becoming successful in blue states to begin with?
    Yeah, there were no successful businesses in Texas until businesses from blue states started moving there. Were you educated by the Dazzler?
    You know this is a strawman, right?
    The KobeSlobberer is so stupid that he can't figure out that Texas was a very successful economic state prior to the Cali exodus and quite a bit of high tech. I seem to remember that Texas was home to a very successful energy industry. Bob's made a sarcastic comment which you didn't understand. The only strawman ass phucker is the Slobberer who thinks that Cali is undergoing some sort of economic renaissance while huge segments of the state sink into poverty.
    The counties that voted for Trump make up 30% of the wealth in this country. I’m sure there’s some successful businesses, you can’t get to 30% with nothing but it’s still only 30%. The right is being economically carried by the left in America, this is beyond dispute.
    Sounds like the left is stealing the wages of the conservatives. 70% of the wealth and 52% of the votes. What should we do?
    You raise an interesting point but I’m trying to deal with what is, not what should be. Of course a system where people aren’t exploited for their labor and paid less than they’re worth would be preferable but that’s not happening any time soon.

    What is, is a country dominated, economically, by democratic policy. So maybe instead of fighting the libs and desperately trying to tear them down so you can elect another Republican to send us into a recession, you should just shut the fuck up and enjoy riding the coattails.
    This is pathetic, even for you. Somehow trying to extrapolate some guys starting silicon valley in the 60s and coastline geography into "all leftists are better and more virtuous than conservatives" is ridiculous

    Who is generally wealthier on average? Conservatives or liberals?

    Are the wealthier areas in CA harder blue or red than the surrounding poorer areas?
    Until @TheKobeStopper disavows his privileged upbringing as a result of the capitalist system and resigns as the beneficiary of his trust fund, it's all hot air.

    It's a fucking message board. Starting threads is kind of the point of the place Kunt. I realize you view this place as more of a performance space where you can display your little Kunt act but most of us don't see it that way. Your little act is nothing more than a cry for help and attention Flea, you know you're too fucking stupid to engage in any real conversation so this is what we get. Keep crying bitch.

    https://www.heritage.org/poverty-and-inequality/report/air-conditioning-cable-tv-and-xbox-what-poverty-the-united-states

    Each year for the past two decades, the U.S. Census Bureau has reported that over 30 million Americans were living in “poverty.” In recent years, the Census has reported that one in seven Americans are poor. But what does it mean to be “poor” in America? To the average American, the word “poverty” implies significant material deprivation, an inability to provide a family with adequate nutritious food, reasonable shelter, and clothing. The actual living conditions of America’s poor are far different from these images. But an effective anti-poverty policy must be based on an accurate assessment of actual living conditions and the causes of deprivation. In the long term, grossly exaggerating the extent and severity of material deprivation in the U.S. will benefit neither the poor, the economy, nor society as a whole.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    The typical poor household, as defined by the government, has a car and air conditioning, two color televisions, cable or satellite TV, a DVD player, and a VCR. By its own report, the typical poor family was not hungry, was able to obtain medical care when needed. The typical average poor American has more living space in his home than the average (non-poor) European has.

    Sure, likely true. You want to make them even poorer with federal policy.

    Totally. That’s why all the richest states are blue and the poorest states are red, our terrible economic policies that make people even poorer.
    California is a rich state and yet it has some of the highest rates of poverty in country.
    There is no poverty in America. Everyone is fat and has iPhones.
    Compared to most countries you're right. There is no poverty. But using the poverty rate numbers generated by the Federal Government, there are a shit load of people living below the poverty line in California. Now why is that since it's such a rich Blue state?
    Cali has 1/8th of the US population and 1/3rd of the welfare cases. Build it and they will come. Want more pigeons, put out more pigeon food.

    The counties that voted for Trump make up 30% of the wealth in this country. I’m sure there’s some successful businesses, you can’t get to 30% with nothing but it’s still only 30%. The right is being economically carried by the left in America, this is beyond dispute.
    The electoral winner-take-all result at the county level is an insufficient proxy to prove the point your tying to make. But you knew that.
    I’d never frame the argument this way to anyone I respected but I did stumble on to something pretty decent with the there’s no poverty in blue cities, everyone is fat and has iPhones.

    Each year for the past two decades, the U.S. Census Bureau has reported that over 30 million Americans were living in “poverty.” In recent years, the Census has reported that one in seven Americans are poor. But what does it mean to be “poor” in America? To the average American, the word “poverty” implies significant material deprivation, an inability to provide a family with adequate nutritious food, reasonable shelter, and clothing. The actual living conditions of America’s poor are far different from these images. But an effective anti-poverty policy must be based on an accurate assessment of actual living conditions and the causes of deprivation. In the long term, grossly exaggerating the extent and severity of material deprivation in the U.S. will benefit neither the poor, the economy, nor society as a whole.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    The typical poor household, as defined by the government, has a car and air conditioning, two color televisions, cable or satellite TV, a DVD player, and a VCR. By its own report, the typical poor family was not hungry, was able to obtain medical care when needed. The typical average poor American has more living space in his home than the average (non-poor) European has.
    Look how stupid these two are. THIS IS FROM THE SAME THREAD.
    Do you really want to see stupid? Tell me why anything I said in this thread is "stupid." What's makes it stupid? Watch this space closely because you're going to witness a great example of stupidity.

    The part where you whined about poverty in blue states and then mocked the idea of poverty in America. That’s the stupid part, blob.

    Told ya that you'd see a great example of stupidity. I didn't "whine" about poverty in blue states. I merely pointed out that while you were busing pimping how great blue states are and how much wealthier they are than those awful Red states, California has some of the highest rates of poverty in America.

    I didn't create the US poverty line my stupid little Kunt of a friend, but for purposes of discussion we can use it as a baseline for who does and who does not live in Poverty in America.

    Do you deny that poverty in America looks a hell of lot different than poverty in Africa Kobe? Now go run and hide Kunt.

    “Blue cities aren’t doing that well, lots of people in poverty there”

    “People in poverty in America have great lives and are doing well”

    You are educationally sub normal.

    Yes, if you're a fucking moron I can see how those two statements would confuse you. Maybe if quit dodging the question you've been asked you might be able to educate yourself.

    If you're going to live in poverty would you rather live in poverty in America or in the Sudan? What we call "poverty" in America would be considered very luxurious in most other parts of the world. Do you deny this?

    Btw, no one said that people in poverty in America are living "great lives" but you're a strawman ass fucker and this is just what you do.

    Let’s get rid of farming subsidies and see how that 30% of America’s wealth in red counties holds up.

    Farm subsidies impact only a handful of US crops. Plenty of Red agricultural counties would hold up just fine. Now quit dodging the fucking question you were asked.

    Yep, and the overwhelming majority of all farm production receives no subsidies.

    Biggest scam is ethanol. Both parties are in on the scam. Billions to Iowa and Midwest millionaire corn farmers.

    I object. You think Biden is going to end them? Btw, how much subsidies do potato farmers receive?
