California and nearly ALL democrat run state recieves LESS in federal aid as a percentage of their general revenue than republican run states . California is in the bottom 10 while your red states fill the top 10.
Easy to check if you actually look before spouting.
Violent crime rates by state? California doesn't even show up in the top 10. Tennessee #1 for that one.
I don't even like California...
Heck Forbes did a article rating state economies and the same trend contines. Blue states tend to have better economies than red states. Texas is about the only one that bucks this trend and it's at 9th.
