Sorry, I still don’t get how this affects the Coronavirus spread? Because these states spent there money on something other than infrastructure?
Besides not spending their tax revenue on infrastructure, in the case of New York they ignored their own health experts and spent no money on having a stockpile of medical supplies in case of a pandemic.
Now other states were equally guilty.
It would be interesting to know which of the 50 states had some sort of pandemic medical stockpile and which states did not.
