....stupid, obsession with Fox News, or infatuation with Trump...
WHEELING, WV (WTRF) - West Virginian has yet again landed at the bottom of another economic list. This time the state has ranked 50th as the poorest State in the United States. The survey by 24/7 Wall Street based its low findings for the Mountain State on the median household income. West Virginia also ranks among the worst in a number of other key socioeconomic indicators such as Unemployment rate, poverty rate, and percentages of families who earn less than $10,000. - - - I lived in West Virginia for almost a year when I was The Associated Press Correspondent there, covering that state and parts of Ohio and Kentucky. I met many nice people, including many smart folks, but you could easily see how the lack of formal education and opportunity was holding *everyone* back. |

That is not the easiest place to get to and other than coal and moonshine there is little reason to go there. |

And other than one Republican senator since 2015, has been a very blue state. And the previous administrations shutdown the main money maker for WV. Coal. |

The price paid for the extraction of coal took and takes a horrific toll. What was needed and is still needed for that state is education, infrastructure, and industry. That was true when I lived there and it is true now. |

Undereducated people with little industry as we pretty much priced the USA out of the low skill manufacturing jobs. What is the poverty rate and unemployment numbers in the Washington DC area? Baltimore? PG county? |

That is the fatal flaw in the congressional system. If you have been there 50 years, a lot of people owe you favors and you are on all of the important committees. You can make your voters happy with the pork you bring home and they don't really care how you vote on anything else, so you can do more to get favors by voting for stupid stuff. \ I give you Bill Nelson ;-) |
