    We’ll see how many red-staters cross state lines to buy their evil, demonic $11 insulin.

        I have family that loves to say this. They moved from CA to live in a red, welfare state that siphons more federal funding than they generate.

        I remind them often that my state pays for their state.

      Yep, time to flee the leopards to save their faces from being eaten.

      Shame there aren’t as many farming opportunities on the Pacific coast as there are out midwest. Oh well. I’m sure those ones will just have to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

        “I deserve-it/actually-need-it not like those other free loaders” is a very real attitude that many Americans have.
