Does anyone else notice the states ran by the dems are also the ones that dont require picture id to vote

Supposedly it's racist but wait you can't buy beer or cigarettes, get a job, apply for housing, enter a government building and slot of other things without a photo ID so is all that racist too. Hell in my community a cop can stop you at any time for any reason and ask for it and arrest you if you don't have one. If you are to lazy to go spend 10 dollars to get an ID than that's your problem not the government being racist

Did you notice the states run by Democrats are also the ones with economic surpluses, and high marks on education, health, and public safety?

leftist crap sources, all of them.

@redredred You posted an article, exposing right-wing bias and possibly even distortion, to call my articles leftist crap. What's more, your article isn't even about any of my articles, but about a completely different article that's on the same site as the one it's talking about, but on a very different topic. Further, the site [i]you[/i] used is absolutely full of support for leftist positions.

This is absolutely glorious. Thank you for helping my point.

@OggggO wear a hat, maybe people wont notice your point.

@OggggO Actually his article is a refutation of your first link as it cautions against reading to much into the federal tax burdens documented by the Tax Foundation.(your first link)

@redredred I call this guy "the strawman" as he is incapable of staying on topic and will instead attempt to put words into your mouth and claim your point is completely different to what you are saying. Keep it up, he'll tire himself out and give up when it's time for his juice box and afternoon nap.

@SumKindaMunster My first link was about how much each state contributes to the federal budget vs how much federal aid it recieves. His link was about average tax rates on individuals living in each state.

Nice try though.

[quote]Her link was about average tax rates on individuals living in each state.[/quote]

While it did contain information like that, it was a direct refutation of the post you provided. It stated to not take the Tax Foundation's report on tax burdens too seriously as it may be distorted.

Additionally, from what I see the user redredred is a male, yet you referred to him as "her". 🙄

Nice try yourself.

@SumKindaMunster My post was not about tax burdens. It was about revenues.

My bad on the "her" thing though. I wasn't paying attention and thought I had seen an F after their name.
@redredred My apologies for misgendering you due to my own carelessness.
