Propaganda disguised-—listing DC as a “state”.....
The locked down fascist Chinese colony of Hawaii wins. What a joke.
Umm, so the ranking was on issues like: “pretty”?
I’m confused. Issues like political crappola were ignored? Corruption, traffic, cost of living, etc. The article says little, or I missed it.
Good, stay out of Florida, we bad state, very very bad state. we no want Yankee’s or illegals.
Two years ago I moved from #6 to #43 and couldn’t be happier.

We may be 23rd, but still light years ahead of New Jersey. Just sayin’
People think Hawaii is great because they stay there for 2 or 3 weeks at a time then leave.
Live there for 5 years and see if the attitude is the same.
My father and stepmother lived on Kauai for 7 years, the first year was idyllic, the second and third were getting accustomed to doing without things you took for granted on the mainland.
The rest were dealing with island fever and trying to keep from getting bored.
These were retired people so they didn’t have to deal with the issue of getting a job and being able to work.

I guess this means I can use the Moniker “49er”.
You couldn’t pay me enough to leave my red state.
A more revealing survey would be to ask American’s to rate their opinions of the US federal government on a range of issues and track those impressions by State. Then we’d see a ranking of US states with the most moribund states (ie. NY, CA, PA & MI) near the top and the more freedom loving states near the bottom. This would clarify things greatly as a survey like that would tell us how bad life is in the states at the top of the list.
