Those "red states" have tiny populations and are not exactly cradles of civilization - utah, alaska, wyoming, Idaho and Nebraska. Yea, cool that Nebraska has a balanced budget, but who the fuck wants to live in Nebraska?

The next most "red" states are "Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kentucky, and West Virginia." Said states rank near the bottom in education, income, infant mortality rates, etc. etc.

Red states are usually the states you don't want to live in...
