I no longer see the The States of America as a single entity... I personally view it as separate nations. The haves & the have-nots
I think saving the places that want to be saved is worth it
Let the outliers come along if they want!
But we definitely need to stop subsidizing the hate and bigotry

If you take the deep red states out of the equation.....
Everything goes up in America.
Also, the United States is somewhere between 27 and 31st in the world in IQ.
DESPITE that number including all the people who came here to do all the jobs Americans aren't qualified to do!

The pie chart represents what much of America THINKS is the breakdown of the American "political divide"
The graph shows a more accurate representation.
20.5 ineligible to vote and those under 18
34.7 chose not to vote
22.1 voted Democratic Party
22.7 voted republican

Washington DC is on par with the best countries in the world for health, wealth and life expectancy.
EVERY SINGLE STATE that sent troops to DC are at or near the bottom.

My opinion is that Washington has to create an environment in which people want to stay. Whereas California has the natural draw. So Washington is either consciously or subconsciously trying to win the "liveability" battle. Similar with Colorado and Minnesota.

Democrats have had a winning hand for 56 years.... but playing this hand forces the country to acknowledge its deep systemic problems.
The divide between Democrats and republicans is statistical.
15 top states for HDI voted Harris
26 of 28 worst voted trump
The racism and hatred are killing us...

I'm genuinely curious why we talk about "American cities" as a 'whole' when there's such a divide...... even in America. The 14 states, and DC, that are above the United States overall HDI average all voted for Kamala Harris in 2024. These states are in the ballpark of Denmark.

HDI(human development index) includes education in it's formula.
All 14 states above the United States overall HDI average voted for Kamala Harris in 2024.
26 out of the lowest(worst) states voted for trump.

26 out of the 28 LOWEST states voted for trump.
Why is anyone shocked they want to make more stupid people.

You can say life expectancy, wealth and education are culturally biased but even if you separate them from this particular scale the quantifiable trends still follow....

"Democrats have left these places behind"
"Democrats don't care about these places"
"Democrats(politicians) don't come here"
So, in the absence of Democrats, who exactly has been running the 26 states at the bottom of the statistics?
It's infuriating how republicans simply aren't held accountable

"America is divided"
HDI tells the story of the divide.
All 13 states above the United States average voted for Harris in 2024
19 of the bottom 20 and 25 of the bottom 27 voted trump
[Delaware and New Mexico being the outliers]
Divided by outcomes.

I use HDI(human development index) as a "catch all" for political issues and their outcomes. Hdi takes into account life expectancy(an outcome of 'health care').
Every single one of the top 13 states above the US average voted Harris in 2024.
19 of 20 lowest voted trump.
It's all VERY predictable
