Congress should have allocated more $ for the election.

because as liberals have repeatedly shown, every known problem is cured by spending more money. which is why our state is in such enviable shape.

Well as we know if the conservatives don't like something they will stamp their feet, cry and not allocate $ to it.

I'd still rather live in Conn. then many of those #^&#^&#^&#^&hole conserv. states.

Why? It can't be the top 5 rankings in income, life expectancy, health care, education, or the fact that we don't take dramatically more $ from the feds than we pay in taxes (unlike basically every "Republican" state).

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

did you leave anything off that list? was that a selective list? be honest....

any list of the pros and cons of CT that doesn’t mention cost, is about as useful as evaluating the maiden voyage of the titanic, but without mentioning the iceberg ( the linens were comfortable, the paint was fresh, the artwork was exquisite, the food was fresh.)

there are towns in conservative states that have all the nice things you mentioned, at a fraction of the cost. which is why, despite your bullsh*t selective list, Ct is one of the few states that is losing population and shrinking its tax base, even before covid while
the rest of the country was booming.

i love it when liberals make it sound like the alternative to CT is Appalachia. look at towns in NH like Hollis/Brookline/Amherst, or Franklin TN where my brother lives. these states have zero income tax, yet in these towns they cannot build $600,000 houses fast enough. upper middle class families are moving here, not meth heads.

except that’s not true, no when it comes to helping people. you’ve seen the same data i have.

this nonsense is why trump gets called a racist despite doing more specifically for blacks, than any president in my lifetime ( lowest black unemployment ever, increased funding for black colleges, criminal justice reform, school choice. ). but he’s a racist. riiiight.

that’s your best counter argument? that just makes all
kinds of sense Paul. ignore what he factually did for blacks, to fabricate gibberish about what he does for actual racists.

you’re not embarrassed to type that nonsense?

You're not embarrassed by the constant anger you show here? Is that any way for an adult to go through life?
