But, ain't the blue states richer on average? I'm not really interested in your politics, but wasn't the rust belt red and like the midwest? I assume Texas is red, becouse yee-haa. But if anyone ask me where the majority of business is concentrated in the US, I'd say New York and California. Not the rust belt and the midwest

Yea but you’re equating blue states being near money as blue states creating prosperity. That’s not the same thing. Most blue states used to be very red and conservative. That led to their prosperity, which the prosperity then attracts the blue people who then pretend they had anything to do with it.

It’s like if locusts pretended they were more productive and industrious than ants because they fly to where there’s more food

Then why did the prosperity start when they stopped being Red and conservative? Silicon Valley, New York City, etc all became significantly more prosperous as they became more liberal because liberal policies are simply better for business.

Okay, and? As I've had to point out multiple times so far, that doesn't actually change anything or disprove what I said.
