This is Hardly a Surprise … Red States’ Income Growing Faster than Blue States’
The choice is yours America, do you want your economic growth to be like a “Red” or “Blue” state?
Let this be a reminder to those in 2012 swing state/battle ground states, Independents and open-minded and concerned Democrats, as reported in USA Toady, Red state’ incomes are growing faster than that of Blue states’. What is most interesting is that when averaged nationally, the robust gains in red states and meager gains in blue states produced a national growth rate remarkably similar to that in the swing states. This is what would be called a trend America. there is a reason why Red states are doing better than the big government, union controlled, high tax blue states. As also stated at The Blaze, “Gee, maybe there’s something to be said about this ‘limited government’ & ‘free market’ stuff, huh?” A note to those in swing states in 2012 … what would you want your state ti be in the next four years, like a red state or blue? The choice is yours in November 2012.
The income of those living in red states has climbed 4.6% since the recession began in December 2007, a USA TODAY analysis of total increases found. The average income of those living in blue states and swing states saw a much slower increase. The personal income of blue states has increased 0.5%, while in the swing states, income increased 1.4%.
Contrary to Obama’s comments, it looks like there is a difference between a Red state America and a Blue state America. Even though a President is supposed to be President of all America, it is obvious what works economically and it ain’t big government, Nanny states.
Income is growing much faster in Republican-leaning “red states” than in Democratic-tilting “blue states” or the pivotal swing states that will decide the 2012 presidential election, a USA TODAY analysis finds.
Personal income in 23 red states has risen 4.6% since the recession began in December 2007, after adjusting for inflation. Income is up just 0.5% in 15 blue states and Washington, D.C., during that time. In the dozen swing states identified by USA TODAY that could vote either way Nov. 6, income has inched ahead 1.4% in 4 ½ years.
Key swing state findings:
•Declines. Four of the 10 slowest growing are swing states: New Hampshire, Michigan, Florida and Nevada. The Silver State’s income plunge is in a class of its own, down 10.8% because of its real estate collapse.
•Gains. Eight of the top 10 states in income growth lean Republican.
What more does it take for Americans to realize what direction America needs to go in 2012? How much data, how many obvious signs and indicators do Independents and open minded Americans who are concerned with the future of the United States need to rescue our country?
It’s Good To Be King … Taxpayers Spent $1.4 Billion on Obama Family Last Year, Only $57.8 Million on the Royal Family.
ITS GOOD TO BE THE OBAMA KING, LET THEM EAT CAKE AND PAY FOR OUR PERKS …
The Daily Caller reports that according to a new book, “Presidential Perks Gone Royal”, the US taxpayers spent $1.4 billion on the Obama family last year. All this while the Brits only paid $57.8 million on the royal family. Unreal. The Lonely Conservative points out that we even given Obama an allowance on top of his salary. An allowance, for what ingression the federal debt? All this occurring as families in the US sacrifice and do without.
Taxpayers spent $1.4 billion dollars on everything from staffing, housing, flying and entertaining President Obama and his family last year, according to the author of a new book on taxpayer-funded presidential perks.
In comparison, British taxpayers spent just $57.8 million on the royal family.
Author Robert Keith Gray writes in “Presidential Perks Gone Royal” that Obama isn’t the only president to have taken advantage of the expensive trappings of his office. But the amount of money spent on the first family, he argues, has risen tremendously under the Obama administration and needs to be reined in.
Gray told The Daily Caller that the $1.4 billion spent on the Obama family last year is the “total cost of the presidency,” factoring the cost of the “biggest staff in history at the highest wages ever,” a 50 percent increase in the numbers of appointed czars and an Air Force One “running with the frequency of a scheduled air line.”

The Search for Jimmy Hoffa Continues … Police to Drill Friday Beneath Concrete of a Suburban Detroit Home
Could this finally be the tip that discoveries where Jimmy Hoffa was buried? Police are continuing the long search for Jimmy Hoffa who disappeared in 1975. They will bed drilling beneath the concrete if a suburban Detroit home this coming Friday in hopes of finding the former Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa.
In America’s endless search for Jimmy Hoffa, police will drill Friday beneath concrete at a suburban Detroit residence after a tipster claimed a body was buried there at the same time the former Teamsters boss disappeared in 1975.
Police say that the tipster’s information is “credible,” and a radar has detected an anomaly beneath the ground at a home in Roseville, Michigan, said Police Chief James Berlin.
Authorities don’t know who or what is buried there, but crews will take a core sample and test it for human remains, Berlin said.
The tipster didn’t claim Hoffa’s body was buried there, but he did tell police that the burial happened about the time Hoffa vanished, Berlin said.
And I always had thought he was buried under the “G” in Giant Stadium.
