    You really need to stop claiming to ignore the person you're endlessly debating.

    You're very bad at this.

    1) No, you didn't, you posted other metrics that don't substantiate any of your claims, and 2) You made an argument that demonstrates you don't know anything about economics.

    Odd how that works right?
    You don't know the difference between the mean and median, how they relate, how they differ in different states, or why. Earnings are not higher in blue states "because they have to pay more taxes and have a higher cost of living." nor is that difference in cost of living purely "due to government involvement." It's because the richer, bluer, coastal states (or islands of blue in the middle) are dense centers of commerce and the arts, and most of the middle of the country where the GOP is dominant is composed of empty space. Odd how that works, right?

    ... which doesn't have anything to do with anything.

    That also doesn't have anything to do with anything. Is this your new strategy?

    Back to you posting thread after thread of vacuous, poorly reasoned nonsense? Spectacular. Best of luck learning how to defend your positions, though. You'll need it.
