    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.
    Our?

    Kreist. If you live in a big city than everything is more expensive and wages are then, naturally higher. That’s where the min wage is already close to $15 an hour. And every big city outside of Texas is blue. The rest have been Governed by Democrats for decades. Tell me how these rich blue states have done anything to lift people out of poverty?
    What poverty? They’re all fat and have iPhones.
    Is it the TDS or just some later onset syphylis that drives your thought process?

    All the money in the country is in blue states.

    All the money in red states is in blue cities.

    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.
    So you're saying the filthy rich actually are paying their fair share of taxes, enough to economically carry the country.

    Gee...I wonder if you've ever argued the exact opposite.
    Didn’t mention taxes. Five posts and not a single interesting point.

    Accurate facts disinterest you. Obviously. Got it. Carry on.

    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.
    Hopefully you realize that those stats you quotes are completely unusable from an analysis standpoint.

    I agree that the elite white democrats are dominating the minorities in their own party.

    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?

    The government shouldn't be mandating anything besides a minimum wage and labor, OSHA laws etc.

    COVID pay is kind of ridiculous considering most grocery store workers aren't in the high risk category but whatever. That's between the unions and companies.
