Minnesota Is In 46th Place

The 2014 edition of the rich state, poor state,, report from the Alec-Laffer State Economic Competitiveness report for economic outlook ranks Minnesota 46th out of 50 states. The 50th ranking is the most dismal of all 50 states and Minnesota ranks close to the very bottom, according to NEWSMAX. Jason Lewis had already reported this.

Contrast that with the braggadocio heralded on the front page of today's StarTribune (5-18-2014) boasting about what a productive year it was at the Legislature under one party--DFL--rule of both house of the Legislature and Governor Karl Marx running things. The reporter opined that continue one-party rule would be good for Minnesota. Just wait till Obama does this nationally in his third term as dictator.

I have a news alert for the reporter: gridlock occurs because Liberals and Democrats are gone so far to the left, have become so fanatical and unyielding, that principled Republicans and conservatives would have to cave on principle to avoid gridlock. We need one-party Republican rule for a decade to reverse the terrible damage done by the Left.

The editorial staff at the Strib brag that once again Minnesota is a state that works, and that this legislative session was most productive. It was that: like their Washington heroes (Reid, Klobuchar, Franken and Barak), they have bravely, efficiently accelerated our race to the economic bottom. Why, by next year or the year after we can be 50th in economic outlook.

We need an anarchist state at all levels. This means dismantling and getting rid of government, pared down to the bare minimum and kept that way. Minnesota's ruling class, as usual, in their arrogance, stupidity, mouthiness and love of economic and social justice, grew the state, and diminished the liberty of every citizen, That is progress from their point of view.
