    The "5th largest economy in the world", $200 billion negative, mostly
    because of Democrat fraud and excessive state retiree pensions.

    The public roads and freeways are rough, bumpy, filling with cracks, chips
    and potholes. Repairs are done at night and just add more dips to the deteriorating surfaces.

    The Democrat solution?

    We'll build toll roads! They'll pay for themselves and we can contract
    the state transporation departments to maintain them!

    We can charge stupid voters in battery electric vehicles to sit along side
    the public traffic scum in the toll lanes because we had to steal public
    road space to create the toll lanes.

    The lanes branch off the main freeways and extend for less than ten miles,
    then they must merge with public space again. The toll lanes are
    underutilized and will never pay for themselves. They have already proven
    that with the Laguna and Trabuco debacles.

    Democrats never think anything through. Their solution is to simply raise taxes and throw more money at mistake after mistake.

    DOGE is the right solution for the USA.

    When are California voters going to realize that and kick the ignorant Democrats out?

    Speaking strictly of road conditions, South Carolina will give any
    state a run for the title of "Worst Roads"

    Do red states even have roads?

    The shitholes are overrun with dirty mongrels who worship Trump.

    Red States are welfare states!

    As Americans head to the polls — or the mail-in ballot drop boxes — voters
    will weigh in on their own state's financial health based on who they
    elect in state, local and federal elections.

    To put states' financial health — and the potential impact on residents of those states — into context, MoneyGeek analyzed and ranked states
    according to their dependence on the federal government. Rankings account
    for political affiliation, net benefits individuals and organizations in
    the state receive, state government revenue from federal sources and GDP
    per capita. Key Findings:

    7 of the 10 states most dependent on the federal government were
    Republican-voting, with the average red state receiving $1.05 per
    dollar spent. Twenty-nine states sent more to the federal government
    than they received, compared to just nine states in 2021. Of the
    states that sent more than they received, 52% were Democrat-voting and
    48% were Republican-voting. New Mexico had the highest return on
    federal spending of any state ($3.69), and Delaware had the lowest
    ($0.32).
