I’m surprised Mississippi isn’t on that list. I assume this is 1 at worst because while I have no doubt Arizona and Kansas suck major ass, they can’t be worse than Tennessee and Alabama.

Also surprised Indiana made the list. Godsawful hellhole sure, and impressively so given its neighbors, but I always pictured it as a mundane shittiness. I think of Indiana like I think of Iowa, firstly I don’t, but when I do it sucks but not like, on par with Alabama and texas, more in a “yeah it’s like the bastard child of Michigan and Iowa” there’s nothing to do in the farmland or suburbs, and gang violence in the former industrial areas, all with none of the remotely effective policy of Illinois, Ohio, or Michigan.

I have a bud who lives there. Lots of straight up drugs and bigots, some of the recent laws they passed are straight up backwards. I think it mostly pops up because of the drug issues though, he always talks about seeing people on crack and meth.

The university there is probably holding the state up a smidge both the others you mentioned.

You can only fit so many shit republican states on a 10 item list. It really seems like they're racing to the bottom.

Coming from MS, yea. Alabama is better. They have better liquor laws and brewery laws, and it shows. Alabama has Huntsville, which is a huge engineering hub that’s being built up constantly. MS has nothing like that.
