I'm still trying to figure out why no one has mentioned the correlation between the color of the states with the lowest average unemployment rates and those of the highest.  Some time back I heard a blurb on Fox I think about the "Right to Work" states having the lowest unemployment rates but then it just disappeared as a topic.  It's still true, while my home state of Oregon creeps up towards No. 1 with 10.8 as of March 2009, it only following the biggest Union State of them all Michigan 12.0, and just above Ca.10.5, a "Just plain crazy state".

 

I believe that it implies something important about those states.  It seems that they have a better infrastructure, and better overall business model.  I believe that entitlements are the main culprit.  That's pretty obvious in California where they are spending their way to bankruptcy only to be bailed out by the Feds.  But, that money will be gone in a matter of months the way they spend.

 

Where is the common sense that led this country to greatness?  I repeat my request for a Conservative Union dedicated to advancing the cause of better business.  Dues paying members with only one cause to protect Conservatives and advance the cause.  More of a political Union but not a PAC.  Card carrying, dues paying, representative government, power brokers for common sense.
