Is Maryland in the same tier with NC,GA, VA, MI and NJ? (state, map)

[cdw1084]

I ran across a posting with our fellow people from Maryland saying that the state is in the same tier with some of the above.

Do you guys agree?

I was not aware that GA and NJ were in the same tier in anything.

I heard Texas and Hawaii were in the same tier, confirm?

What are you trying to rank here?

[cdw1084]

the obvious:

Population, GDP's, things of that nature......shouldn't that be obvious?

What did you think I was ranking?....

Both of those can be objectively measured. Here is the list for pop numbers:

Ok you obviously didn't read too much.cdw1084 was arguing in the thread MD vs Ga that Ga has bigger GDP than MD therefore is in a different tier.I showed him a map with latest data(as of 2009) where you can see Ga's GDP has declined and Ga is in the same tier with MD,TN,AZ,WA,MI,CO,IN.We were talking GDP,not population,area or number of lakes.Why don't you run a poll between GA,TX,CA,AK,FL and NY and see who has bigger area and population?

GA is not in the same tier with those states. Stevie Wonder can see that!

It all depends what you rank.You can't rank states by all these categories at the same time
