Re: Mass shootings
They also have dramatically lower cost of living on average. Home prices and comparable rent, lower energy costs, lower taxes, etc. Top-line income is generally higher in blue states, but red states get better value for their dollar. Saying $XX.xxx and below is the poverty line nationwide makes no sense when $1 in Alabama gets you as much as $5 in LA or Manhattan.

Re: Mass shootings
Guns are an inanimate object. They are incapable of doing anything. They require someone to use them, otherwise they are essentially metal and polymer paper weights.
This isn’t a gun problem. This is a people problem.
Politicians and media suggesting otherwise are because of their agenda and because there are a lot of really stupid and impressionable people in this country.

Re: Mass shootings
Actually... the mental health industry is among the most profitable health businesses.
Very low overhead. Most patients are perpetual.
The problem isn't money. It is that some time ago, it became considered taboo (and in fact legally prohibited) to institutionalize people who can't take care of themselves but don't wish to be in a facility. Now they live on sewer grates and under bridges. Because they can... and because do-gooder advocates "freed" them.
Doesn't matter how nice a facility you offer them. They prefer the feral life.
But we are continuously asked to pretend that rational (which is to say "greedy" in left-speak) people are to blame. And ought feel guilty for not living under bridges and shitting their pants.
