These types of threads are not welcome here.

Give the die-hards some time. They will come up with something.

And it begins. (You are better than this, btw)

You expect me to let this crap go unanswered? The "study" did not include growth in the respective states in years past.

Of course they are.

It would be more helpful to simply post the info with a link (as the OP did) and let folks discuss it.

Almost ALL growth and knowledge come from "debate" about the issue.

If a theory has merit...it MUST stand up to challenges. Without those challenges, the theory is pretty worthless.


Yes, there will be SOME snarkiness. It happens on each "side". But, the exercise is valid and worthwhile.

I've learned a great deal on here from these types of discussions. And, unless the "learning" took place on a subject that was totally new to me, then the "learning" implies that I was either of limited exposure or simply incorrect. THAT is when the 'challenges' are useful

It's just like hedge funds that kicked arse in 2010. The states that had idiotic law makers that are approving such things are the same states that got smashed the hardest in the recession. The bounce back might be slightly bigger, but right to work states are still appreciative of all the jobs their shitty legislation sent their way.
