    In all the towns with republican mayors and republican council members, in republican counties in states with republican governors and republican legislatures, with republican controlled congress for much of our recent history, why are so many republican citizens unable to prosper?

    Vote for whoever or whatever you want, it won’t magically make a town economically prosperous. Democrats won’t bring deep water shipping ports to nowhereville. Progressive policies won’t bring back small towns where the resources dried up. That stuff just isn’t how it works.

    Could it possibly be because of…republican policy?

    Like the republican policy under Reagan and Schwarzenegger that significantly contributed to making California into the economic powerhouse it is today? Or are we just supposed to ignore that because it doesn’t fit your narrative?
