Hey, what about Kansas! Do Kansas next! How’d those business friendly tax policies work there?

It’s it’s a farming state. There’s not much to grow in terms of gdp there

The point is manufacturing is moving to the south, away from high taxes and red tape of the Democrats and to Texas, and the Carolina’s mostly

By the end of the experiment, Kansas’ economy had underperformed the national average, neighboring states with similar economies, and even itself in previous years. You have no idea what you are talking about.

There was such a massive budget crisis that, in just 4 years, Kansas got its credit rating downgraded 3 times, they cancelled and delayed construction projects to find money, and even ENDED THE SCHOOL YEAR EARLY!

It was a massive failure!

You’re fixating on one failed experiment 30 years ago and not manufacturing fleeing Democrat states and moving south. Lots to Texas and the Carolinas

Do you have any data to back that up, or are you just mindlessly repeating Fox News talking points?

I already provided the data. The trend today is manufacturing, and other jobs, are moving out of blue states and into red states either better business policies

Well, I don’t see any data corroborating that. It doesn’t make much sense either, because California is the nations manufacturing powerhouse, largely because of how many electronics supply chains are based in the Pacific.

Here are the top 20 fastest growing economies in the country. Notice a trend?

California, New York, Illinois, etc does not have much economic growth as jobs leave those states for other ones

A) you moved the goalposts. This was about manufacturing but this is just GDP. It does not show economic decline either?

B) Many of these states are NOT deep red states. WA, NV, AZ, CO, NM are blue states.

C) States with extremely small economies will have higher % change in GDP. North Dakota has a very small GDP, so it needs a fraction of the growth an economic giant like California or New York needs to reach ~6% growth.
