California has a GDP of over $3 trillion, raking as the fifth largest economy in the world. It is home to 10% of Fortune 1000 companies. Personal income per capita California ranks 6th with 117% of the national average. But for subgenius, Western Liberalism is the reason for this. Oh, and those dirty Mexicans.

Exactly. I can always count on subs to make my point for me as he shoots himself in the foot.

Not only do those fine Kentucky conservatives crave that Defense budget government cheese, but they do so at a per-capita rate higher than those loony left-coast liberals. : )

Not only that, but sid the subfaps would also have to ignore the strategic defense location of California, the size of the labor pool, proximity to world class tech companies and universities, the sheer amount of empty space, the size and scope of the military presence and pretty much an infinite list of other reasons why California is a better place to grant defense contracts than Kentucky. But, hey, he’s an idiot incapable of rational thought so it’s surprising that he even “thought” to copy and paste some raw numbers in an effort to make a some kind of point.

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) is very much into pork-barrel politics. He boasts to voters of the dollars, hornswoggled from those damblasted Unionists, that he has funneled into the trough Kentucky. Then they all get high on bluegrass!
