Mississippi is the poorest state in the US, with a poverty rate of 18.7%, followed by Louisiana as the second poorest state, with a poverty rate of 17.8%, and New Mexico, as the third poorest state in the US, at a poverty rate of 16.8%.
I don't know, is it?
Or they ain't so gud at countin'.
So I started actually looking up numbers and they indeed look good from certain sources, but I'm still giving them the side eye. For instance, the CDC shows Mississippi as having the #1 murder rate among the states in 2022.
Is the point of hitting children to reduce violent crime? I have a feeling there are better ways. Maybe we should work on getting rid of microplastics.
