Congrats on Louisiana on making the top 50!

quote:

Some states shine in health care. Some soar in education. Some excel in both – or in much more. The Best States ranking of U.S. states draws on thousands of data points to measure how well states are performing for their citizens. In addition to health care and education, the metrics take into account a state’s economy, its roads, bridges, internet and other infrastructure, its public safety, the fiscal stability of state government, and the opportunity it affords its residents.

More weight was accorded to some state measures than others, based on a survey of what matters most to people. Health care and education were weighted most heavily. Then came state economies, infrastructure, and the opportunity states offer their citizens. Fiscal stability followed closely in weighting, followed by measures of crime and corrections and a state's natural environment.

These lists are always crap. Let me invite the author to a crawfish boil or let him try a few charbroiled oysters and Louisiana would be at the top.

Only if he doesn't have to drive through Louisiana to get there. If he did, he would get an eyeful of the trash that it thrown out on the side of the roads and move us right back down.

I didn’t follow the link, but I remember Jon Bel telling us we were first in the southeast. We must be in the top ten overall, right?

Man, the USNWR site sucks. They should really ditch some of that client-side horseshite. I'm just trying to read an article, not simulate fixed wing flight or sequence the human genome.

California at 24 is a damn joke. Any of the bottom 10 states are much better places to live.

WA being ranked #1 makes me wonder how shitty some of the other states are.
