Quooter jobs could be a big factor I told you my reason
California lost 182.083 in 2020 first time losing people since 1900 in 2019 they had 39,510,000 so it's not as bad as you and the other right wing nuts think it is. But on the brighter side of things maybe enough will leave and turn Texas Blue. California makes up about 14.8% of the US economy that's a pretty big chunk NY adds 7.6% Texas 9.2 Florida 5.1, 7 states make up 47.7% of the economy. So basically they are not leaving like you think and the other 43 states are just going along for the ride especially the RED states. 14 of the Red States make up to less than 1% each you could call them welfare states.

This thread is not about which states are contributing the most to U.S. GDP. Population is the biggest factor in determining a state's GDP contribution, along with the number of large corporations with headquarters in each state. Half of California would have to fall into the ocean for it to lose its lead in GDP contribution but California is the most populous state in this country by a wide margin.

But this thread is about how well states are recovering from the pandemic - and there is absolutely no doubt that red states are faring better on that count than blue states - far better. People and investment are flowing from red states to blue states. You can keep posting irrelevant information about the past but the trends are very clear in showing which political party's policies during the pandemic have been the most effective. The states with the most COVID-19 deaths are blue states and the states that are seeing the largest net exodus of taxpayers are also blue.

Quooter you good

Thanks, vector. I think I will frame this post. 

Quooter I was being sarcastic for all the Bullsh!t you can throw out and your welcome.

Well, I guess I will take the post off of my wall if that is how you feel.
