Highest poverty rates (46th to 50th): Kentucky, West Virginia, New Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi.
Most dangerous (46th to 50th): Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana, New Mexico.
Highest share of people on food stamps in 2017 (46th to 50th): Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, West Virginia, New Mexico.
Most dependent on federal aid — i.e., “socialism” (46th to 50th): Kentucky, Arizona, New Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi.
Most polluted (46th to 50th): Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana.
Most people lacking health insurance (46th to 50th): Florida, Georgia, Alaska, Oklahoma, Texas.
What’s interesting is that of the 16 states mentioned in these seven categories, all but New Mexico are red states that voted for Trump in 2016. Trump can't mention their problems, because he fears offending people who voted for him.

Poverty, homelessness, & crime can be seen across America.
Singling out one city and Congressman (especially of the pedigree of @RepCummings) is not about addressing the problems.
It's about something else.
And we all know it. |
Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!
Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
