Lots of red on top and lots of blue on bottom.

Blue states offer crime, blight, degeneracy, racism and joblessness. It's a shame.

Where are the jobs? Red states.

Where aren't the jobs? Blue states.

Left-wing states are starting to resemble the dormant economies of socialist Europe! pic.twitter.com/5Tgi8fqWMt

Only reason Delaware is s high is because of their tax havens for incorporation there.

O&G is all contractors from out of state. North Louisiana is just paper mills. Shreveport looks like a post apocalyptic city. New Orleans is a blue cesspool.

Percentage gains are much more difficult for larger states like Texas.

I believe a former wanted a "chocolate city." And he got one

It's crazy to me, that citizens dont demand their elected officials copy what we see is working.

Policy A works? Copy that.

Policy B is detrimental? Do that and we'll vote you out.

That is how our country should work. But people are much more likely to know about the latest tiktok trend, than understand basic policies that greatly affect their lives.

There is little population growth in Louisiana and even less business growth (outside of oil & gas)

They also have a huge brain drain. A good portion of folks who go to LSU head out of state once they graduate.

Love the state but it faces a lot of challenges. I'd say first step would be to get rid of the state income taxes and create a school voucher system.

Theres a reason LSU's biggest alumni base outside Louisiana is Houston. Southeast Texas has a lot of the LA talent that leaves the state, but stays close.

Delaware is a head fake since companies love doing business there due to their legal system.

Ever met anyone who moved to Delaware? Me neither.

That's because a vast majority... and I mean MOST... people are just mouth breathingly stupid.

There are a LOT of really, really dumb people out there.

I had like 8 or 10 clients that were Delaware corporations, but they only organized in Delaware but operated only in Texas. Apparently my situation was an outlier and companies actually locate in Delaware.

That graph is displayed in percent change. Texas probably leads in most jobs total.

Shreveport is at least fixing the interstate, out of the stretch of I-20 from ATL to DFW, Louisiana has the worst roads.

Dems operate on victimhood.
