Red states building a nation within a nation

2004?

What would happen if blue states stopped paying for red states?​

A recent Rockefeller Institute study makes clear how much money flows out of Democratic-leaning states into Republican-leaning ones.

if the government taxed less and spent less, rich people and businesses predominantly in blue states would save a lot of money on their taxes, and poor people and businesses predominantly in red states would lose a lot of federal aid.

I rely for that paragraph on Paul Krugman’s latest column, which in turn relied on a just-released report by the Rockefeller Institute of Government, which found that blue states pay significantly more than their per capita share into the federal treasury, and red states get significantly more than their share of the benefit of how those taxes are spent...

Laura Schultz, executive director of research for the Rockefeller Institute, wrote up the results. The list of states that pay more than their pro-rata share into the federal treasury is overwhelmingly Democratic, that is to say blue. The list of states that benefit most per capita from federal spending is overwhelming red, that is to say, Republican.

This lie via purposefully skewed statistical jigging gets debubked at least 3-4 times a year.....go away, fool.

Sure, go ahead and try.

Red states produce 33% of our countries GDP.

Riiight, because everyone wants an abortion. We’ll be happy to see the pro-aborts leave our states.

Since the majority of Americans support abortion, you should really be concerned.

If you have more recent data, post it. I am sure things have not changed much.

Why would I take time to do that, Simp? That's your rodeo.

Break it down by time to get an abortion, Sport.

I'm betting IM2 will run away from this one.

The best time for America was the fifties. People in red states realize this. Moving back in that direction is a good thing.

No it wasn't. And nobody's going back there.

You better check how the fifties happened. Massive government proograms created the white peoples fifties. You are saying that Jim Crow was the best time in America.

I don't think so.

Good thing we got rid of the Dimwinger Jim Crow laws, huh IQ2?

Why do you blindly worship the racist Dimwinger party?

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.

oh, it's CNN, LMAO

Nope, we just have to bring back what we had here.

CNN is more credible than the right wing crap you read or watch.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

We should kick out about a dozen Blue States.
Let them live in their one party neo-marxist police state utopia.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
