Not to fear, that assclown will be back trying to apply some sort of spin soon enough.

It will either be but per capita or divided by the axis of uranus on his moms nose or some sort of shite.

The fact remains more Federal welfare dollars are spent in Las Angeles county alone than the entire deep south, FACT

Not to mention CA. They have the largest recipients of welfare in the country. They should be a dark, dark green.



Plus for years they've been deducting their state expense from their federal taxes. They've been the real mooches all along.

So public welfare expenditures are higher in states with more people. Groundbreaking stuff you have there.

You are even dumber than the OP if that is all you can glean from that image

Are you suggesting for instance there are more people in NJ or MA than GA?

How does TX with nearly 3X the population of IL only receive only 1.5X as much.

You just do not want to see the truth, thats fine, go hide in your safe space and all will be well.

No do how many people are on government assistance in each state, and also how many people require assistance and their political party affiliation.

States are made up of PEOPLE, moron and there are PLENTY of Democrats in the states that went for Trump....

You can bet that MOST OF THE PEOPLE dependent on government IN TRUMP STATES are DEMOCRATS.....

If you azzholes really believed your own lies you wouldn't scream " RACISSSSS!" at the top of your lungs every time someone talks about welfare reform....

Can you explain what constitutes a public welfare expenditure on that map?

Misleading graphic is misleading.

A LOT of that is based on 1) location of military bases; 2) locations of military suppliers w/ government contracts; and, 3) locations of national parks/preserves

I looked up the source of your table. It actually only includes state and local spending on public welfare. Not federal. This thread is about federal, bro.

Please breakdown this into counties. And the truth will be seen.

Look at Louisiana: the republican areas demand the least assisantancd from the federal govt and they are the wealthiest in the state. The liberals demand the most assistance from the federal govt and they are the poorest in the state. Louisiana has a high miniority population and this a high federal govt assistance.

This is true for every state in the country.


Now do the same for violence and gun crime. You will see 90% of all gun crimes are committed by liberals living predominately in a liberal voting area.

Liberals force a system of welfare on the country....then vilify states that have people on welfare. You created this issue, dummy. You don’t even know what your graph is suggesting.

Are you for ending welfare?


Does it hurt to be so simple?

I’m not ignoring it. It’s there. Also the middle of California.

But the idea that poor uneducated southerners voting Republican against their best interest is an easily disproved theory.

Most poverty in the south votes democrat
.

There’s another map I have but it would take this from factual to racist in a hurry.
