    No moron Usual Name... This is how I started. (see below)
    You have not addressed the real issue here.

    Using GDP to measure economic output in districts is useless unless you take out the government money.

    A district receiving massive govt money will have a massive GDP because govt spending and investment are components of GDP.


    That was my point. You all choose to argue a lesser point instead of focusing on my main point.

    Here was my first post on this thread. See the quote below.

    Do you want to know the number one state or district in GDP...

    Its the district of Columbia...

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_by_GDP_per_capita




    D.C. current dollars per capita its $188,782.
    New York is next $78,354.

    That is a lot of Government Domestic Product.

    I would not be surprised if you do see a lot of govt in those districts that you all are so proud of.

  6. So let me see if I’m understanding this correctly: The Radical Leftists are reliant on poor Black and other poor minority voters in inner cities to continue to overwhelmingly vote in favor of Democrats in order to benefit a few rich Democrats. Sounds like a stupid, poor slave and a smart, rich master relationship to me.

    It seems to me the radical Leftist are getting intellectually and logically tied up in knots with their rambling propaganda.

  8. Those on welfare, foodstamps, and medical assistance who live in a drug ridden, high disease inner city are considered to be poor, right? Hopefully the Leftist statistics are not including transfer payments in their calculations. However, the OP states the richest districts are Democratic. Is not the definition of being poor and stupid is to continue to vote for the same party over and over again like the multigenerational welfare recipients that surround Washington D.C.? There are other ways to put this, but no matter how it may be said, the obvious conclusion still stands there, like a statue.

    Politicians, many of them Democratic and White, have enriched themselves by providing dependency creating public assistance for the poor, which is comprised of many minorities and funded by working class taxes.

    Addressing the psychological educational, and substance abuse aspects of poverty along with energy and food security jobs will be the basis for real progress, not people mindlessly voting for politicians who promise more freebies at someone elses expense.

    The bottom line is most of Democratic supporters are non-productive people in some way whether they are poor jobless on public assistance or Democratic politicians who are voted into office because they reallocate weath from the productive to the unproductive.

    The end result is we end up with a Government that does not understand business and economics, with a populous that has no skills. Other than the .001% or whatever, where do you think everyone else’s standard of living will be? How about yours? This is not rocket science and we have seen this play out in other countries and the inner cities in the US. Learned helplessness among our population is not a sustainable or desirable goal, even if it benefits a select few politically. At least in the short to medium term.

  10. Interestingly, you show pictures of 6 people as well as a small group of people. Some are carrying the Confederate Flag. Not all people who carry the Confederate Flag are racists. Yes I’ am aware of the Civil War and its reasons. Additionally, even if all the people you’ve shown are racists, they are a microscopic minority today.

    It is unfair and prejudicial to say the actions and opinions of a small small group represents that of a larger group of people. It is racist, in fact. Although I am still a currently registered Democrat, I am confident in saying that the actions and opinions of the KKK and other true racists that happen to be Conservative are not reflective of most members of the Republican Party.

    By the way, speaking of the Civil War, wasn’t the anti-slavery leader of the North, Republican President Abraham Lincoln, pitted against powerful slave owning Democratic plantation owners of the south?
