reminds me of the news story i heard this week. nj police raided bars & restaurants. they said many of the bars were serving low quality booze, when the customer orders top shelf booze. many of raids were at tgifridays. one bar served rubbing alcohol and caramel coloring and said that was a scotch neat.
Yeah, let the blue states such as California and New York go down the tubes. And then just who is going to pay more to the federal government than they get, just so the red conservative states can continue to get more than they pay for??
So perhaps even the ultra conservatives here should hope that California is indeed through its own fiscal problems, as California is the only state in the US with an economy greater than $2 trillion dollars. IF all of the other states in the US did as well, the total economy of the US would be more than $100 trillion, or just about twice the amount of all the economies of the world put together. So if the economy of California does fail, just how long before the total economy of the US (including those of the conservatives red states) also fails. In all brotherly kindness, I can tell you not very long at best!!
Red states are attracting businesses by loosening regulations and eliminating benefits. No additional jobs are being created nationally. Later, when they are saddled with rampant poverty, a sickly population and a lethal environment, they’ll come begging to the Feds to bail them out.Instead of those who got rich putting them there.

That’s what happens when you regulate the jobs out of your state.

With Benghazi, the IRS scandal, the invasions of privacy, etc., you’ve got quite a big gall bladder to talk about conservative lies.

I suppose the IRS ADMITTING their wrongdoing doesn’t count?
