My first thoughts looking at the list are that the states with the poorest people tend to be the states with the most people who don’t like “acting white”. No shocker, then, that these are the poorest.
Prices on everything have risen by a lot.
The influx of people drove up property values and property taxes rose accordingly.
My property tax bill, which was high because of the area and schools, almost doubled.
Toss in many thousands of broke illegals crossing daily and it will drag any state down.
Has nothing to do with “acting white.”
