So you say you want to raise, well, let me give you some advice here. Um, places that you might want to move to. I mean, you know what? Where do you think? Where do you think you would want to move to? Where do you, what places, what states in the country? Where do you, where do you think you’re seeing the best wage growth? Do you think it’s the blue states? Uh, no freaking way.
Again, I do get a kick out of guys like Gavin Newsom out and about. Again, he’s kind of like waiting on deck just in case Joe Biden bows out. That his state of California is an absolute disaster, people leaving in droves. But again, it’s like, no, everything’s awesome here. Everything is awesome. Yeah, right. Let’s take a look, shall we? We got…
new state personal income data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis. And basically, it highlights how aggregate worker and proprietor earnings in red states, evil red states grew significantly more than the blue. The blue. GOP states, led states added more jobs, including in higher paying industries like tech and finance along with faster growing wages.
Nationwide, earnings from first quarter 2022 to 2023, 5.4% as a whole. New York, 2.6. Indiana, which is actually a red state, 2.6. California, 2.9. Connecticut, 3.4. Rhode Island, 3.6. Maryland, 4.0.
Oregon 4.5, Illinois 4.6. Again, all of them run by donkeys. Okay, let’s go to some of the elephant states here. North Dakota wages up 9.7%, New Mexico up 9.6%, Nevada up 9.1%, Florida up 9.1%, Nebraska up.-
8.6% South Carolina up 8% Alaska 7.9% Texas 7.7% Again, states with higher earnings growth also tend to have lower tax rates and faster growing populations. Wall Street Journal compares actually the state of Utah 7.2% rate versus Colorado, which is 4.9%. Both of their economies are very, very similar.
except Colorado is starting to go the way of California. Progressive states, what do they do? They give out lots of subsidies. Yes, what are our favorite industries out there? Green, green, green. Yet earnings in Texas and Florida grew faster across the board than New York and California. Again, I always go back to this line. I know I use it often. You are what your record.
says you are, the great Bill Parcell said that. Again, you decide. Butt, butt, butt. Yeah, you only mean butt monkeys, okay? Stop with the butts, okay? This country’s gotta, again, all states are supposed to be different. Thomas Jefferson talked about it, little laboratories, little experiments here and there. Where are things working out, people?
