doktor,
it is a bad economy when you're #44 out of 50 states for economic growth. when economic growth over the last four years is less than a third of that of the nation as a whole.
the entire point of using the Kansas example was because Kansas was touted by conservatives as having passed the most rigorous conservative economic reforms. Moore and Laffer, the principle evangelicals for supply-side reform, promised immediate and permanent economic growth as a result of the reforms. these reforms came into effect in 2013.
at the same time, California raised taxes on millionaires to the highest in the nation, something which conservatives predicted would result in disaster.
CA had the second fastest economic growth in the nation in 2014. it had the fastest economic growth in 2015. Kansas was #28 in 2014. It was #44 in 2015.
so yeah, Kansas economic growth sucks.
How is that a sucking bad economy? I remember when US economy eas really shrinking, jobs were lost and debt rose, you minced better words
