People from North Carolina think they are a bit superior to the rest of the South, and certainly to South Carolina. When BMW chose Greer, SC for its plant, the Charlotte Observer ran a cartoon of a BMW up on blocks. They are either Yankees or Yankee wannabes.

DevilDog Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 https://finance.yahoo.com/news/best-worst-us-states-172719904.html Damn Alabama right there too. You can see each States rankings in the link Washington is the best state in the nation, while Louisiana and Alabama are the worst, according to a new analysis by U.S. News & World Report. The American rankings and analysis website factored in health care, education, economy, infrastructure, opportunity, fiscal stability, crime and corrections, and natural environment to create its annual list of the best and worst U.S. states. Damn it looks like Red States are not fairing well in the old color scheme including Texas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevilDog Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Looks like the Looney Liberal States are destroying Goober led Red States. In terms of overall economy, Colorado and Utah were considered the best states due to their strong business environments, employment numbers, and job growth. West Virginia and Louisiana were at the bottom. For health care, Hawaii was the best state in the nation, with Massachusetts and Connecticut not far behind. And due to their public health and health care access and quality, Mississippi and Arkansas were ranked as the worst in that category. When it comes to higher education and pre-K through 12 education, Massachusetts and New Jersey were the best of the best. About 51% of Massachusetts’ population is college-educated, while New Jersey’s 90.1% high school graduation rate is above the national average of 84.1% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever seen any in-state best town list based on these types of metrics??? When you actually know the areas, you can get a real chuckle out of those......Kinda like some football rankings 😆 An example of bad compiling? Florida education ranked 3rd?.... Now if you were not smart enough to recognize that the 'education' portion has a metric compiled from all the transplanted retirees, and not achieved through 'the states' own educational system, you could be easily mislead... (PS: same could be said for NJ, the state being unaffordable, does not actually better the school system as this metric would presume....so not simply hating on Fla) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevilDog Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 MIssicreappi will always suck. No reason to try to figure out why. 🤣😎 And just think in 1865 this was the richest damn State in America with even dumber ancestors. Once the Free labor left so did it's wealth. Proof they have always been dumber than dirt. Now imagine these fools teaching you what to eat, What to worship (White Jesus) and the English language. That's guaranteed failure till you break away from all 3. 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How in the heck did you miss this one? They are here as well. But you have to remember in Missicreappi their go to city is Jackson. That's a big difference from Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio etc. East Texas is where most are. 🤣 You can get away here not in Missicreappi. They run the State and towns. Did You know Tyler, Texas would be the 2nd largest CIty in Missicreappi by a long shot? My city here in McKinney would be the largest damn City in the Creappi. Tyler, TX 104,991, McKinney, TX 181,330 and most people in the DFW see us as a Vibrant Burb not a city. . Jackson is their shining Star 🤣 Where the hell else can they go there. I can go 15 miles in any direction and find more expensive neighborhoods than my own. There are quite a few people from Missicreappi here in the DFW. AVG. Home in Jackson $134, 800 AVG. Home in McKinney $309,900 Median Income in Jackson $35,308 Median Income in McKinney $87,608. Big difference in Redneckdom 🤣 City Population #1 Jackson 173,631 #2 Gulfport 69,913 #3 Southaven 50,389 #4 Hattiesburg 46,629 #5 Biloxi 44,527 #6 Meridian 40,809 #7 Tupelo 35,345 #8 Olive Branch 34,543 #9 Greenville 33,518 #10 Horn Lake 26,486 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
