What I Learned from U.S. Socioeconomic Data Maps

I evaluated data maps of the U.S. by county and state. Crime maps. Wealth maps. RPP maps. Cost of living maps. Ecopolitical maps. Voting records by county maps. Female reproductive rights and cannibus decriminalization maps. Income equality maps. Here is what I found:

"Higher incidents of rape" =~ "greater spending power"

"Environmental destruction" =~ "greater spending power"

"Substandard public health" =~ "greater spending power"

"Prevalence of organized religion" =~ "greater spending power"

"Republican voting" =~ "greater spending power"

"Limited access to abortion" =~ "greater spending power"

"Chauvanism" =~ "greater spending power"

"Anachronistic troglodytism" =~ "greater spending power"

"Intellectual humanitarians" =~ "high cost of living"

"Intellectual humanitarians" =~ "fewer jobs, more people"

Intellectual humanitarians live in coastal states and cities. But not all coastal states and cities are humanitarians.

Idaho (a.k.a. humanity’s seething underbelly) and New Hampshire (America’s fat hairy frat bro wearing flipflops and cargo shorts: among highest incomes with the most McDonalds and Walmarts of any state) are tied for the worst state.

But they’re given a run for their money by: Texas (America’s supervillain: evil in almost every way and proud of it), Pennsylvania (America’s mousey farmwife who secretly supports WBB: never met a corporate exploitation of the poor it didn’t like), Michigan (America’s deranged hobo: fracking, lead-lined pipes, broken infrastructure, absurd levels of crime), Ohio (America’s Best Buy supervisor: quietly and modestly among the most corporate deregulatory, tastelessly commercial states), Louisiana (America’s poolshark cousin: among highest rape, alcoholism, homicide, underage pregnancies, poverty and reports of incest), Mississippi (Poolshark cousin’s tweaky little brother with a speech impediment: does what Louisiana does but with less charisma), Colorado (America’s chainsmoking daytime television watcher: home of strip malls and mediocrity) and Virginia (America’s self-righteous PTA-active office administrator with a power cut: home of corporate authoritarian centrism).

The best states for low-income liberal women? Washington, Oregon, Massachusetts, Maine, Minnesota.

Among the best and the worst simultaneously? California, Alaska, Montana, Wyoming. The latter two being fine if you’re white and preferably male. Alaska being fine if you’re male and own a gun. California being best if you’re very rich and like bloodthirsty competition or have absolutely literally nothing and no hope of ever getting more - or if you have enough connections to shield you from the state’s political and economic trials by fire.
