    the worse a state treats the least among them, the worse off the state as a whole is....

    No. Non-revisionist, US history. The one where things happened, and it's retold with as much accuracy as possible. You may have a rewritten account you rely on.

    The left always does the revisionist thing on this subject.

    Not really. The right has a whole cottage industry of think tanks and professional sycophants with doctorate degrees, funded by right wing ideologues who've inherited their wealth, promoting the rewriting of history, economics, sociology, science, and more. It's intended to get people to believe in a lot of things that aren't true, and can't withstand facts, but is spun enough to get the easily led sheep to bleat and repeat.

    I'd haveto see it. The left doesn't have the money or resources the right does. The right owns the media to spread their agenda. The left doesn't.

    But, as they say, imitation is the best form of flattery, and a tool of those who can't do for themselves, sometimes.

    You see what you want to see. And the left has plenty of money.

    What did I imitate? I simply recycled the same bilge I always hear form the left on this issue. What you posted was old news. Don't flatter yourself.

    I don't have to flatter myself, with you making me look so flattering.

    And I see it how it is. You, may have some ideological blinders on you. It's all good. I just work in the system we have, not the ones someone may want.

    Through the revisionist prism.

    Look flattering compared to you? I'll try, but it's hard to hide this kind of awesome.

    I don't look through the conservative revisionist prism like you do.

    Nope. You guys get fiction writers for your versions of history.

    I've already succeeded. The trying to get your head in reality is all yours. I wish you luck.

    Then let us out of your big government bankrupt program. We won't take the federal welfare but you in return cannot levy your mandates on us - in the end we will come out ahead.

    That's a win-win. You stop sending money to the red states leaving more money for your communist society, and the red states get your big brother boot off their neck. And everyones taxes go down.

    I haven't been on this forum much over the past few years. That's what makes it new to see you fail. I probably missed out on years of watching you fail.
