Especially since if it wasn't for the Midwest, him and much of the world would have extremely high food prices. The Midwest and every other conservative place he disparages is what puts food on his table
Exactly, I had to laugh at the "bug-filled" comment.
That would be Florida, not the Midwest.
Many of the people in "Middle California" originally came from the Midwest. They helped to make that part of Cali the most productive farmland in the nation!

I truly do not understand what that posters nasty comment about the Midwest was all about, and what it had to do with the context of this thread.
No particular reason. When one state starts to get bashed they all get bashed.
I see, kinda like, my states getting the heat, so I'll take it out on this unrelated state over here minding its own business?
Got it.
Deflection even works for states, who knew?

BTW, what do y'all care about California and how we do things here anyway, especially for folks so thin-skinned re: any criticism of their own state? 'Cuz I'll bet we can offer a few "suggestions" of our own, seeing as how Cali helps subsidize so many red state moochers to begin with (like Missouri, which receives $1.32 for every tax dollar paid, while CA only gets .78)...?!

Why don't Pelosi, Boxer, Waters and the rest do something to help CA rather than demonizing TP'ers and the like.
Of course, we in NJ have the same problems. Our Senators don't do jack for us.
Then that would make you an idiot serving self agenda. I do not "deny" warming of the globe, it has happened since the 1979 records, but if you have been paying attention, it has been stagnate (not warming, even arguably cooling) over the last 10 years. So, this "denial" garbage is nothing more than petty political suck down you suffer from your propaganda belief.
How about your bring up the specific of such in a thread devoted to such? Oh wait... You have, and you were shown to be an ignorant fool in your disposition, unable to support your claims by any scientific means. Sorry, this is a different thread Jack, stay on topic or go back to those thread you ran away from because you were shown to be lacking in your argument.
Again, off topic there Mr. Wizard, this general garabage claim you are pushing doesn't support the BS you are pushing about CA being the Wonderful wonderland you claim. What is that Mr. German? You are so educated on California, I am sure you are, I mean, you read about it in the paper! /boggle
Oh yes, amazing invention, which is why tests have shown that it actually increases miles per gallon and for the "benefit" it does, it actually costs more, and burns more fuel to negate its effects! Wow! Score one for the idiot environmentalist! They rock! let stupid be the means to which all worship! Pull your head out of your arse and actually think about the garbage you spew!
That is because you can't fathom that the crap you spew is not worshiped by others. It is a common mental ailment of socialist. Remember, socialism is for the people, not the socialist! Everything makes sense when the peasants are working as you intend! /boggle
Your interpretation is funny, I was not lacking arguments, you just didn't agree with them, which is fine with me, though. I remember those threads. And if you look at them closely, you will notice that after a few exchanges everybody simply ignores you because you are a zealot. Your way of posting goes like, either I can convince all others that I am right, or I will drown them in endlessly long and fragmented posts and links and videos and charts and what not until they are tired of responding and I have the last word. And the second way works, congratulations Unlike you, I am not a zealot, I observe what I observe, and I don't care if you agree or not. So, don't expect others to invest as much time as you do just in order to try and convince you of anything. And probably only you are fooled into believing that you prove anyone wrong with your approach, most readers are more clever than you think and make up their own minds, and with your unfriendly, vulgar ways you are a disgrace to this board and most Americans as such. But don't assume you will achieve anything with your attempted insults, after years of discussions with anonymous sociopaths and misanthropes on various message boards I have grown a thick Teflon skin

I see we're still parroting the 'red state welfare' meme that refuses to die. The rich pay most of the taxes in this country and, surprise, most of the wealth is concentrated in metro areas of blue states like CA and NY, etc. There are 160 billionaires living in CA and NY alone. The states where the most billionaires live are CA, NY, TX, FL, IL, CT, MI, WI, NV. Every one of those states pays in more than they receive because rich people live there, not because they're not filled with dependents. 40% of the welfare goes to people in CA and NY alone (13 of the top 20 welfare states (per capita) are blue states and 7 of the 10 lowest welfare states are red), so stop pretending people in Wyoming are bleeding you dry.
We care because we will have to take care of the mess CA is making. It might pay more into the Federal pot right now, but they're eventually going to come begging for a bailout. They don't have the borrowing capacity of the gov't, so they will have to be rescued. With nearly $900 billion in unfunded liabilities, it's a big problem.

Actually, they stop responding because they are unable to deal with holes in their arguments. Though bringing facts to the table often shuts many people down.

*chuckle*
That is because you argue subjective belief, not facts. Science is not a subjective position, rather an objective one. You make claims, boast about your authority, and then when someone calls you on it bringing the evidence to the table, you wave it away as if you actually could disregard facts in favor of such subjective opinion. Though this is a problem with most who were educated under relativistic thinking. They have no concept of evidential process, simply believe, and it is true.

Of course not, you will not invest as much time because your entire position is that of a fanciful belief and a collective ideology to which refuses to accept fact. I always find it amusing too, considering that the same group is always the one touting "science". Then they complain when the details of the facts are presented. I know your arguments, I have pushed you into a corner with facts and watched you ignorantly flail and evade using subjective means to attempt to justify that ignorance.

Thank you, I always said that if the Socialist/Communist/Marxists who promote ignorance and emotional conviction to an ideology in the face of facts despise you, then well... it means you are pointing out the failures of their conviction. I will take that as a compliment.

Good for you, nothing will get through such defenses, it is why your kind is chosen to advance the cause. Thick... yep, I would say that is the right word.
