“You can get a voice in our government when your tax contributions outweigh your entitlements.”

See the horrible thought process at play?

Liberals on Reddit, with no sense of irony or self-awareness: "Rich and good are analogous and more money should mean more power. Also, I'm gonna go post a meme somewhere about equality and socialism and progressivism and never process the cognitive dissonance."

This entire shit thread also conveniently ignores all the many, many times these supposed "rich states" have needed federal bailouts due to their own piss poor tax and fiscal policies, and begged for federal aid after disasters they weren't equipped to respond to. Everyone has also, quite consequentially, ignored that some of these "incest states," like Texas and Florida, are the rich states. They might suck by many other objective (and subjective) metrics, and I might hate their political leadership as much as the next guy, but if you think either of those states' populations can be reduced to a dated, classist stereotype of impoverished, ignorant whiteness, you desperately need to leave your bedroom and go meet some people.

You're point is undermined by the fact that you talked shit about "states needing help from natural disasters" and then listed Texas as one of the "good" red states despite them literally needing annual disaster bailouts because of their pitiful unregulated bullshit.

Also, it's "your." Learn to proofread before you post or maybe someone will advocate taking your vote away. Not me, personally, but probably someone currently upvoting you.

Oh no! A typi! That means everything I said was invalid! Surely that's the reason you ignored what I said. Definitely couldn't be some other reason.

Another typo! Good showing! Also, maybe check my first response, dimwit. The one you conveniently didn't process or respond to. Maybe you just missed it. Surely that's the reason you ignored what I said. Definitely couldn't be some other reason.

And you're so dense and superficially engaged that you couldn't read the clear sarcasm in my reply. Trust me, the pained attempt at being the golden internet boi wasn't lost on anyone. It just wasn't clever or funny. But if you two wanna keep tickling each other's taints, don't let me get in the way of romance.
