Blue State Death Spirals

[OrangeTsar]

Nothing to do???!!!
You aren’t doing it right.

 

[TN Ribs]

Look at the net population loss over the past decade and the number of businesses fleeing to red states and get back to us. Otherwise please stay at the children’s table. The adults are trying to have a conversation

Clearly that's not the case because exactly zero of your anecdotes you mentioned refute my points. And hell, I didn't even ask about healthcare or that red sates rely on the government dime significantly more than blue states. I was being nice simply because I feel bad for you posting something so nonsensical.

And yet the least educated state in the country is your shining beacon of California, and New York made the top ten.

Least Educated States 2023

Great self-own Einstein. Now do states with college degrees or higher. Sometimes I just have to laugh at the ineptitude of the average red-hatter.

Trade school grads are far more valuable than English Lit and Gender Studies majors.

Economic suicide, really? My guess is you have never looked at the Total GDP of Blue States vs. Red States or education level, poverty level or violent crime rate. You opened up a can of worms you can't close cat nip.

But I get it, you're afraid of drag queens so blue states are bad. You're an infant.

You are the child in this thread. No one brought up drag queens in this thread until you cried about it. Did it hurt your little feelings that some people don't like blue states.

How Does Your State Make Electricity? (Published 2020)

From 2001 -2019 37% of the electricity in NY state came from natural gas. So even though this measure bans it in new construction under 6 stories ( exceptions also exist depending on business type), NY state will likely see an increase in natural gas consumption to produce the electricity demands. Unless it can ramp up hydro, nuclear, solar, and wind to meet the new demand.

yes but.....
during that referenced time frame they had approx. 2000MW of their electricity generated from Indian Point Nuclear station.
They proceeded to shutdown all of that in April of 2021 and put approx. 1.000 humans out of work.
so to replace those MW's, they built 3 gas fired plants which replaced approx. 90% of the lost MW's.

And teachers are more valuable than plumbers, what's your point?

Yes, I'm devastated. Not sure I'm going to make it. GFY.

More college degrees because of a larger population. Nice try liberal. That's what ya'll do, deflect from the truth or just out right lie.

Just curious, what is your connection to Tennessee? Genes, school, parents?

A place to keep track of the economic and political suicide of deep blue states. Let me start off with the latest lunacy from New York State
New York Passes Gas Ban in New Buildings; Strain on Electricity Grid

What!? Where shall I fart?

Dude, please pay attention, this is by percentages. Are you familiar with that concept?

Some of the most pathologically stupid idiots I ever knew had walls full of college diplomas. FWIW.
And regarding „red hatters“, Linux users are quite intelligent I will have you know

Teachers that teach useful topics instead of indoctrinating sheep are. I’d take the plumbers and roofers.

The point is a college grad without useful skills that contribute to society skews your argument.

Go to San Francisco. They will let you take a dump on the sidewalk too.
Amazing that liberals never seem to have a reply for that particular fact

 

[hUTch2002]

As is any city that has exploded like that in such a short period of time.

I crack up at people (not saying you're one of them) who are like "They should have planned ahead and build out the roads!!!!," as though it is reasonable or even possible to build out a level of infrastructure to support an influx of millions of new people in just a few years, and have it all built before an anticipated huge population increase. It's such an easy, lazy, armchair QB take, but everyone I've heard say it thinks they sound so smart.

I agree it’s easy to armchair QB anything but whoever thought it was a good idea to have that many interchanges right there together when you come into Nashville was nuts.

Teachers are not more valuable than plumbers when your toilet is backed up

I agree in general. But English lit, when they at least taught the Western Canon, was a very noble major indeed. Now it is post modern deconstructionist claptrap of course

 

[whodeycin85]

I saw the TNRibs brought up that red states rely on government money. Wonder if he takes into account that those stats include retirees which move to red state because of cost of living therefore adding the reliance on government money..it's like the gender wage gap BS...when you break down the numbers all they do is produce leftists lies.

Omg.

Oh yes. I haven't even gotten to red states vs blue states relative to democracy. That's my favorite one and it's very telling. I know how the MAGA faithful love them some authoritarianism so they don't have to think for themselves, it's easier being what to think (Fox News). I'm a patriot, I support democracy.

Anyway, puck drop in a few minutes. Later.

Ah the old red states “take more” from the State argument.

Not if you are building a house!
