Best-Run States Are Low-Tax Republican, Worst-Run Are High-Tax Democratic.

When you are making comparisons those things are also important.. For instance Texas has a horrible infant and maternal mortality rate... Way behind most every European nation.

Depends on what you're comparing.

Here is a breakdown of the best and the worst states, based on several financial indicators.This is not a biased report. They simply look at the facts. And the facts prove that you cannot tax your way to prosperity. Quite the opposite, in fact. Low tax red states do better then high tax blue states. It's a fact. Try to refute it. I dare you.

Republican states are impoverished Democrat states are prosperous that's reality

That has no effect on fiscal policies.The study is based on a review of audited financial statements for 2015 covering five measures that gauge the states' ability to pay bills, avoid budget deficits, and meet long-term spending needs and cover pension liabilities. Texas, BTW, is ranked 23rd. About average. New Jersey is dead last. What's their excuse?

I notice that you didn't even try to refute what I posted. Typical liberal coward. The article is based on information provided by each state. How is that, in any way, biased? I bet you didn't even read the OP.

"evince" is not all wrong;

"The Mercatus Center was founded and is funded by the Koch Family Foundations," and "In addition to being funded by the Charles G. Koch Foundation, the Mercatus Center also has ties to several prominent right-wing groups, including the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) and National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB)."

Regardless, it isn't hard to frame economic statistics to support just about any opinion you want to push, I could just as easily produce a study with the exact opposite conclusions, and it was published by a right leaning source

And if you want to get into details, missing from that data is the amount of Federal funding a number of those Red States depend upon which is disproportionately supplied by Blue State taxes

Also has the highest State GDP amounting to 14% of the United States' total GDP and currently is the sixth largest in the world

It's rather stupid, not to mention off topic, to argue who has the largest GDP by state. California happens to be one of the most populous and largest states in the Union; of course it has a high GDP. It also has the some of the highest taxes, worst debt, highest unfunded liabilities and high poverty rates.

It doesn't matter who did the study. It is based on figures provided by each state. If you wish to refute this, you must refute the data. Can you do so? I think not. Sucks to be you. Also, by your own argument. left leaning sites should not be trusted either. They are biased. You cannot claim one side is right and the other wrong without refuting the evidence. No one has even attempted to do so. Would you care to try?

Also, the money going to those red states is being used to support democrats in BLUE cities in those RED states. This has been explained many times. Perhaps there is a problem with your reading comprehension skills?

I'm not sure it is disproportionately supplied by blue states. A sizeable portion is Social Security and Medicare funding which comes from the benefits paid to those residents in red states and retirees moving to red states.

Also, blue states that are high tax states get to deduct those income and property taxes from their federal income taxes that reduces their federal taxes at a higher rate than lower tax states.
