What's your list of the top 5 states in the nation that can be considered "super" states in terms of commerce\ influence\ lifestyle\ tourism\ inter-national trade\ universities, etc. Not just the 5 most populous states.
My list:
1] California
2] Texas
3] New York
4] Illinois
5] Pennsylvania
This is not a favorite states list. Read the OP again
Anyways, my top 5 are
1. New York
2. California
3. Texas
4. New Jersey
5. Florida
How can New Jersey surpass both Pennsylvania & Illinois? Also Florida may not be the same magnitude of Pennsylvania & Illinois.
