Liberals failed economic policies

Job gains by states associated to party in power in those states.   Note the blue clustering at the bottom.  Shameful liberal economic policies turn everyone poorer.

Red states get more money from the Federal Government than Blue states do. Red States are welfare queens that can't pay their own way.

Two states with similar economies. The major difference being the Maryland’s Democratic super-majority in the state legislature. Most of Governor Hogan’s vetoes of Dem pork barrel bills were overridden, yet he still managed to leave Governor Wes Moore a state in reasonable financial order. We are now almost two years in to Democrat only rule, and Maryland is facing a 3 billion dollar budget deficit.

Because of the Democrat super-majority in the legislature for the past 20 years, taxes are higher than average, large cities are turning into slums and the climate-change grift is sucking up money that could be better-spent on other projects.  Billions have been lost to attempts to cure the homeless problem, but it's getting worse, and no one can tell us who got the money and failed to deliver.  An interesting note about clean-air spending; billions of dollars are lost to wildfires in property destruction and the manpower used to fight them, yet when Trump told Newsom in 2017 to clear the dead brush in our forests and mountains, Gavin gave him the finger.  Meanwhile, the microscopic particulates from those fires are causing more pollution in CA than any other single source, killing 52,000 people in one decade.

When Trump complained about CA not clearing "the dead Brush in our forests" it was pointed out this is Federal land. How did CDL also miss this?

are controlled by the National Forest Service.  Trump's plan was simple, Newsom start cleaning up the state-owned forests and the Forest Service would do the National Forests.  Like I said, Gavin gave him the finger.  

 
But once again, you focus on the secondary and not the main point, and that is the fact that California is spending Billions in a failed attempt to clean the air while ignoring the pollution caused by wildfires.  It seems you back Newsom on this approach.

Like assuming I "back Newsome on this approach." I'm completely unfamiliar with CA's clean air efforts and don't have an opinion.

will pressure Newsom to start cleaning up the forests that are on non-federal land, or else turn the land over to the Federal government and Trump will have it cleaned up.  If the National Forest Service could have millions of acres of neglected land deeded back to the Federal Government, it would be worth cleaning it ALL up, but there is little value in the feds cleaning up National Forest Service land only to have the rest of the forests go up in smoke anyway.  The state should take the lead on the cleanup effort.

We're talking about millions of acres of forest land, no matter who owns it. The cost would be massive, as would the time it would take.  Neither the states nor the Feds have enough resource. The whole thing is simply a non-starter.
Not to mention that forest fires actually renew much of the forest's vegetation.

clean-air appropriations should be diverted to this project rather than industries that do less harm to the atmosphere.  It does little good to take the lead out of gasoline if wildfires are pouring hundreds of times the amount of pollutants into the atmosphere as internal combustion engines.

Because no matter how much money you pour into cleaning the forest floor you won't stop wildfires.

US West Coast fires: Is Trump right to blame forest management? [14 October 2020]
.
President Trump has sought to highlight forest management rather than climate change as the key factor explaining the wildfires burning across California, Oregon and Washington states.

"When asked during a visit to California about the role of climate change, Mr Trump said: "I think this is more of a [forest] management situation." However, a recent review of research into the causes of these fires suggests rising temperatures are playing a major role. ..."

[Federal forest: "58% of the 33 million acres"]
[CA State forest:  "just three per cent, with the rest owned by private individuals or companies or Native American groups."]

Whenever you need an explanation for something, climate change! Are your forests on fire? Climate change! Is it snowing? Climate change! Is there a draught? Climate change! Is it flooding? Climate change! Did you know climate change even causes arsonists?  

 
IMP has clearly never seen a beaver.

 
“After 300 years of intense trapping, North America's beaver population in 1900 stood at less than one per cent of the most conservatively estimated pre-colonial population, which Backhouse says was between 60 and 400 million. "That puts the 1900 estimate in the low hundred-thousands."”

How do we prevent forest fires? By pissing our pants and whining about climate change? No, you develop land like a beaver.

Will get his Tango Serra removed from the record.

 
If newscum actually cared about the environment, all of California forest land, wildlife he would put some of California’s money and resources to a good cause and, though not required, assist in managing some of the most vulnerable federal and State land. However thinking about it, why would he do that when, he does not give a shit about the people of California. He will not even manage and clean up the drugs the homeless, the human beings, living on streets which he is responsible for.  
He is too much of an elitist snob to even think about them.  

 
I wonder if soy-boy newscum is a switch hitter like you wokeimp.

Hopefully the GOP will push back against Trump's liberal import tariffs that only managed to pull both farming and manufacturing into recessions in his first term.

Those numbers are the ratio of (2024 / 2020). If the 2020 employment numbers were already LARGE in the blue states you are trying to impugn, a large increase in employment can still result in a smaller ratio. Red states with a lot of unemployment in 2020 will have a larger ratio with any small increase in employment.  
.
We need to see the source document describing the analysis or a lot more data.
