Republicans always say their policies are much better for African Americans than Democrats. Yet African Americans do much better in the blue states especially compared to the Republican dominated states of the Deep South.

Yeah, black folks sure are living well in Detroit. And the Bronx. And Oakland. And Camden, NJ. And, and, and...

Whites do much better in the blue states as well, so you're making no point whatsoever. It's called "correlation does not imply causation"
Red states are generally the rural, more agricultural states. Blue states are generally the more urban, industrialized states. Of course people are going to do better in an urban commercial area than in a rural small town area. That's just basic economics. It has nothing to do with race or politics.
You don't get to saddle working rural people with high-priced luxury health insurance policy confections for leftist behavioral phobias and other fake diseases and marketer disorders, and then claim that resistance to progressive hypochondrias means that you need to offer financial aid to them for mandates you yourselves impose.
Why don't you just admit that you have never spent a minute in either Oregon, California, or Washington and don't have a clue about life outside of your home state.
i've never spent a minute in Oregan, California, or Washington,
how does this fact, change the fact of what California spends on education, or that Microsoft sells their software through Nevada?

How does it change the fact that Microsoft is still located in WA while all those red states are SUPPOSEDLY SO PRO-BUSINESS?
Where did I say it changed that? I said they sold their products through Nevada, a red state, to AVOID paying all of those high taxes which exist in WA..
Why would they do that Veni?
If they were in WA because of the high taxes, which is the claim being made, they wouldnt be avoiding them. Dah....
That doesn't make any sense, if they wanted to avoid paying taxes which they still pay in WA, since this is where Microsoft is incorporated, they should move to Nevada and as far as I know they have not. Why is that?
WRONG..
microsoft was incorporated in Washington in 1981, then then reincorporated out of Nevada in 1986, they did that when they became a public company, they then reincorporated in Washington in 1993, after the tax obligations for going public was avoided, but continue to distribute software through their Nevada Corporation to avoid taxes from the profits.
They dont have to move to Nevada, to avoid taxes, just incorporate there.. You really need to educate yourself better on tax situations if you are going to try to argue tax issues.
How many times do these stupid ass red state/blue state liberal opinion pieces have to be debunked before the left wing idiots stop posting them? Is there some sort of leftist moron quota we don't know about?
Yup. All one needs to do is consider how cities, the vast majority of which are headed by Democrat mayors, are hotbeds of government programs. Maybe that's why the agenda for all of these White House mayor pow-wows always centers on how to pick the pockets of surrounding suburbs, er consolidate city and town services.
Cities have lost their tax base as largely Democrat mayors have continued to attract more and more freeloaders to ride on the neverending gravy train.
Even after all this inflammatory (and rude) rhetoric you still don't makr any sense. First you admit Microsoft is incorporated in WA and then claim they avoid paying taxes by distributing software through Nevada, yet they still have to pay corporate taxes in the state they are incorporated and headquartered, which is.... WA.
If red states offer such a huge advantage to business why is Microsoft still in WA? Why hasn't it moved to Nevada, Texas or Kentucky alltogether? Have a clue? I do.
"Microsoft was incorporated in the state of Washington on June 25, 1981; reincorporated in the state of Delaware on September 19, 1986; and reincorporated in the state of Washington on November 1, 1993."

There is no need to leave Washington if they just offset the profits to other lower tax regions.
