Just because you're paranoid don't mean they ain't out to get ya! Paranoid?!?!? I wish! Shit son, we're hell and gone from paranoid... We don't rent pigs... Come and take it! |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1277549 11/07/2012 07:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Red states take in more government aid money than blue states. We'd be doing everyone a favor. They could get to finally have their super-selective Objectivist theocracy (oxymoronic, I know) they're always daydreaming about, and we could cut some serious fat from the federal budget. Only thing is, we shouldn't deliver foreign aid to them. |
| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 19431490 11/07/2012 07:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You'd better rethink that statement. If you kicked us out, who would supply the money for your "disability" checks? ![]() Ummm it is actually a FACT that red states get back more in spending than they pay in taxes. New York, California, Massachusetts subsidize the trailer trash in Alabama. |

There is no swagger here. Just awful traffic, the highest property taxes in the country, the worst roads in the country, a huge third world population of Indian urgent care doctors who don't know what they're doing, African truck drivers, and illegal Mexican warehouse labor. The moneyed finance class exists by splitting the state into over 500 separate municipalities and implementing suffocating property tax in the own towns to keep the filth out. |

Quoting: Devoted Follower 26966941 ...and that is why I welcome our separation. They don't actually realize that they've bulldozed over all of their productive farmland and don't have any mineral deposits left. But they shouldn't worry, I'm sure California and Oregon will be happy to support them forever at a loss. And I'm sure upstate New York will want in. |
