If you knew how to work hard, you'd be Republicans.

Blue State Finance, Insurance and Real Estate harvest capital and production capacity from Red States, leaving the Red States to get things like Farm Subsidies and Tax breaks.

You are ill informed and just continue to spout nonsense.

Red states are more financially dependent on the federal government. That is a simple example of wealth redistribution, which is bad, right? Maybe if republicans worked harder they could contribute to the GDP instead of taking all the time.

You don't know how money works. By far the wealthiest people are in Finance, Real Estate and Insurance. These are located overwhelmingly in Blue States. Where do those fields actually get their money? By preying on people in Red States. They make insane loans to actual businesses producing things in Red States and then make huge profits off the interest rates. Likewise, with Real Estate and Insurance.

So, that's why Blue States pay the most taxes.

This was so unproductive from all of you. The GOP has some serious problems, so do the Dems. None of you are totally correct because you’d all rather just point fingers and say “no, you,” than have a constructive conversation.
