Nebraska Values: Trump, Republican, Ultra-low crime, Ultra low-drug overdose rate, 2.8% unemployment (unemployment rate, drugs)

[lovecrowds]

Looks like Trump-loving, overwhelmingly Republican Nebraska has an extraordinary quality of life by the statistics.

I believe all statewide elected officials are Republican with a non-partisan legislature, even Omaha has a Republican mayor.

2 opiod deaths per 100,000 people (by far lowest rate in America)

OP always reads like a bad real estate agent trying to move some farm houses out in the middle of nowhere...

If Nebraska was so great, a lot of people would move there. The job creators would create jobs there. I wonder why that ain't happening?

I thought North Dakota was the land of milk and honey. What happened?

Might be the water. Last time I was in the Nebraska, there were signs about how anyone with health issues shouldn't drink the water. Something to do with groundwater contamination from pig and cattle feedlots.

I have no idea what that point of this thread is, such a fail.

So move to Nebraska. No one is stopping you.

I might like their politics out there -- but geez -- there isn't anything to do!

White Privilege. It's obvious Democrats need to import some people of color from places like Somali or Syria.
