And it's population is not shrinking, so what have the evil liberals have done to it?
"have the evil liberals have done to it"

You mentioned high incomes. Connecticut's citizens, on average, are doing well, because we have a large number of extremely wealthy people skewing the numbers. In any event, the financlal health of our citizenry id OK. The financial health of the state, is horrible.

Two additional things...the liberals have racked up debt of 75 billion, which is 25,000 for every human in the state. That is causing towns to cut back on spending, in my town we are laying off teachers and cutting music form the middle schools. All thanks to glorious, flawless liberalism.

And here, you'll see that 4 of the 100 most dangerous cities in the nation, are Hartford, New Haven, New London, and Bridgeport. Guess which political party has run each of those cities for 40 years?
