I think the fact that’s it 48th in GDP probably has more to do with it. Despite being comparable in size to Colorado, Wyoming barely outproduces tiny Vermont.

Sherman Logan posted more current information than I have, and although I believe it’s calculated differently (Looks like fed expenditures for fed lands within a state aren’t counted on his) it is probably more accurate for our purposes.

WY being 48th in GDP probably has a lot to do with its being 50th in population.

Vermont is 49th, with about 60k more people than WY.

Mel, don't know where you got you figures, but Wyoming may have the 48th ranking in number of citizens, but you obviously have not seen the coal trains lined up 5 abreast going and coming day and night 365 to make the claim it may be out produced by Vermont.
