Brother Marx.....beautiful charts! I believe you had better look a little deeper into those numbers before you move to a BLUE state, however. That is, unless you don't eat or drive.
You see, do another map of oil, corn, chicken, cotton, and other vital goods production. You will see that the top producers are mostly RED states. (California is your lone exception....but they are bankrupt and gone soon enough. Just passed a huge tax increase as well. We'll see how that works out soon enough.)
I do not want to waste time on discussions of secession. What I do want everyone to consider is that the welfare system fosters a "plantation" society. The BLUE states live off the products from the RED states. In return, government money is sent to RED states to keep those products coming. The poorest, fattest, most uneducated states are RED. Oddly enough, the RED states produce most of the food. The "plantation" is alive and well AND BOOMING under Obama.
I believe this is one of the most cruel lies the American left and liberals as a whole have told in history. Sure, they will pay higher taxes....as long as the slaves behave and keep sending them their chicken and high-fructose corn syrup. Dense population centers depend most heavily on the food supplies coming from the RED states. So, be careful when you cut off the "government" money. The RED states just may cut off the supply of chicken.
SHINE would have a damn heart attack if the supply of chicken were to be cut off. Just sayin....

This disagreement is what the Civil War was fought over folks. Don't believe the bullshit about slavery causing the Civil War. Besides being the right thing to do, Lincoln needed an emotional and disruptive issue to change the playing field. The fight was settled folks....but the plantation stayed...and most of the people that worked on the plantation are still there after generations. Those that have left, are completely on government assistance and do not work at all. Many have been replaced by immigrants, both legal and illegal.
These are the facts. Obama loves this system and wants to see it expanded. He wants everyone to have a little and no one to have a lot....except for him.
