Red states building a nation within a nation

[eagle1462010]

Making their states even worse places to live and invest is apparently a winning strategy for them. Oh well Amazon always needs more box stuffers.

A good summary of the movement to create a sub-culture (or sub-country really) within America by the right. Basically its another assault by the red states to suppress the rights of Americans within their state borders.. last time being Jim Crow. Everything old is new again, or history repeats itself if you prefer.

"It's not at the level of Jim Crow, or certainly the difference between slave states and free states, but the differences are major," says Jake Grumbach, a University of Washington political scientist who studies divergence among the states. And like Kettl, Grumbach believes the economic and political differences between the red and blue states are on track to only widen.

Seen as a whole, the red states' drive to set their own rules, while blocking any interference from either blue-leaning local governments or a Democratic-controlled federal government, represents the broadest effort to carve out a separate sphere of influence since the fierce resistance to reconstruction across the South after the Civil War that ultimately led to Jim Crow segregation, Kettl believes. In some respects, he argues, red states are displaying a greater separatist impulse today than the South did then.

For now, Kettl sees the initial red state Republican goal primarily as consolidating these new rules and blocking any interference -- what he calls "an effort to build very high castle walls with a very deep moat." But like Grumbach and other experts on state policy, Kettl is dubious that Republicans will settle for imposing their values solely on the states now under their control. As the red states pursue a more consistent and coordinated course, Kettl predicts that Republicans will "try to impose [this] policy on the nation as a whole" if they achieve the federal power to do so.

Blue states such as California, New York, Illinois and Colorado have moved forcefully over the past two years to expand many of the liberties now under siege in the red states. But congressional Republicans while in the minority have already introduced proposals that would apply the red state rules across the entire nation on many of these same issues. The new social order red states are now sketching behind their "castle" walls may offer the best preview of what Republicans will try to impose on all states the next time they achieve unified control of the White House and Congress in Washington.

It's about time the right caught up with the commie left. You despicable shit stains have been doing it for decades.

It sounds like the author has a problem with our federal system of government, as set up by the United States Constitution.

Classism cloaked in the guise of partisan issues is so often the shtick of failing nations

The "pure viral hate" you speak of is only on the part of racists and white supremacists, towards anything that requires the sharing of power with women or minorities.

You mean people with marketable skills? Red states have been driving out people with ambition for decades.

Yes, we don't want to live in shitholes like New York.

The way capitalism works is you can compare two things by their cost to determine value. People pay more to live in NYC than Alabama because NYC is coveted and Alabama is a shithole. In fact NYC is one of the most coveted addresses in the world.

O Trump is a failed businessman. He screwed up a billion dollar business he was given. He blew 900 million in one year and as he left office, owed almost 1/2 billion dollars to various creditors. He knew nothing about public policy and a pandemic was a situation that needed a person adept at implementing public policy. You anti government wacks miss one essential fact:

GOVERNMENT IS A BUSINESS!

Hillary would have been able to use the tools available to get the job done. You're talking only about the vaccine, trump failed to produce the equipment necessary to effectively mitigate the pandemic before the vaccine was done.

If Trump did such a bad job why did Fauci’s boss give him so much credit?

Hillary can’t even handle classified information in responsible manner. She put classified email on an improperly secured and unauthorized server. She’s damn lucky she is a Democrat and is above the rule of law.

Yes and criminals are released right out of jail when they try to kill a sitting congressman in New York. A liberal run shithole.

You go with anyone you want but Morgan Stanley is wrong and we all experienced trumps failure to manage the pandemic.

Sure, you are far more of an economic expert than Morgan Stanley.

Plus you will argue you are even smarter than economist Larry Summers.

Democrats’ reckless spending causing rampant inflation, falling wages and spiraling debt

If skyrocketing inflation and lower real wages are part of Biden’s economic plan, he might want to come up with an alternative.

thehill.com

Former Obama administration economist Larry Summers has been one of the more vocal critics of Democrats’ spending spree, warning for months that it could spur higher prices. In response to the new data, Summers is adamant, saying recent reports raise “my degree of concern about an economic overheating scenario. There are huge uncertainties in the outlook, but I do believe the focus of concern right now should be on overheating.

What Are the Major Causes of Inflation?

There are two main causes of inflation: demand-pull and cost-push. Both are responsible for a general rise in prices in an economy, but they each work differently.

***snip***

Expansionary Fiscal Policy​

Expanding the money supply can also create demand-pull inflation. When the money supply expands, it lowers the value of the dollar. When the dollar declines relative to the value of foreign currencies, the prices of imports rise. That increases prices in the general economy.


The money supply can increase through expansionary fiscal policy, which is enacted by the federal government. These policies expand the money supply by pumping money into certain segments of the economy, creating demand-pull inflation in those areas.


The government stimulus programs enacted during the COVID-19 pandemic are good examples of expansionary fiscal and monetary policies. As inflation began to rise rapidly in 2021 and 2022, many economists agreed that these expansionary policies, which put a significant amount of cash in Americans' pockets, had played at least a partial role in driving up prices.8


Occasionally, the government can create inflation simply by printing more cash. Venezuela did this between 2013 and 2019, creating hyperinflation, and its money effectively became worthless.

Clearly you have never been to certain places in Alabama. I have been to NYC many times for weeks at a time staying in a VERY upscale area on 5th Ave. Compared to the cities I have been to in Alabama, even high priced NYC is a dump.

I think most lefties from large urban areas make these wild assumptions that places in the South are all backwards and everyone lIves in a trailer. Most would be amazed frankly at just how wrong that is as there are many very nice areas on Southern states and those areas are typically much nicer, cleaner and safer than ANY heavily urban area.

Have they had to pay anyone yet? The only people coming to California are homeless drug addicts and criminal invaders.

Then why are housing prices so high in California? They are high because people with well educated, high grade intelligence, and consequently high incomes, want to live there.

I lived thru the 50s. That was an awful decade.

I was a child back then. It was a wonderful time to be a child. The rate of divorce was low, The illegitimacy rate was an astonishingly low six percent. The crime rate was low. Most Americans were affiliated with a church or synagogue. A song captured the national mood with the lyrics, "Love and marriage go together like a horse and carriage." God was in his Heaven. All was right with the world.

It’s the little known economic rule of “Supply and Demand “ in effect.
