Sorry chuck. I am just relaying my actual experiences in the souf. I'm not fibbing even a bit.
Don't get me wrong, I know there are some god damn backwards fucks in the Midwest. I've been to fort dodge, derpenport and even l'ames, but it's worse in the souf.

My eyewitness testimoney will have to suffice. And the fact that by any measurable metric of standard of living, teh souf lags behind not only the rest of the country, but the rest of the world. Chuck can ignore the education rankings that don't fit his worldview, but he can't ignore that income is lower in the south, poverty is higher, there are worse public health issues caused by a poor and uneducated populace, and as a result, life expectancy in the south is much shorter than in civilization. For instance, the average Iowan will live 2.1 years longer than your average North Carolinian. That same Iowan will live 4.7 years longer than your average Mississippian.

The average Iowan is also older, whiter, and compensated less than the average 'merrkan. But hey, if that's the environment in which you choose to live, rock on bruh. quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/19000.htmlAnd a North Carolinian is more likely to live in poverty, NOT own a home, NOT graduate high school, have a lower personal and household income than an Iowan. God only knows what would happen if I compared Iowa to Mississippi, bince NC is among the most civilized of Southern states. That's for the link bro.

It is all about the averages, and that tells me that it is better to live in Scumner IA than to live in Roseboro NC.
While there may be some places that are more cosompolitan than CR or Derpenport, there is a higher concentration of open cesspools of poverty , ignorance and racial hatred in NC than in little old IA.

I guess then that having a literacy rate that is twice as bad in North Carolina is no surprise either.

Actually I can't complain. I'm getting my money's worth, as far as facilities and teachers go. My daughter's elementary school is nicer than the 15K per private schools my brother's kids go to in the STL.
I also realize that I'm subsidizing other kids, but that shit doesn't bother me one single bit. I'm happy to do it.

Teh Dez is way better than Charlotte! And teh quads have everything the Triangle wishes it had! Cedar Rapids blows Wilmington out of the water!! Ur trying sooo hard to prove...what, exactly? That because you live in Iowa, it is better than any other place to live? Have you ever had the option to live anywhere else? The point I'm trying to make, and I have no idea why you're not able to focus and grasp this bince I've made it very, very clear in all of my posts, is that the South is a hell hole, and while there are decent peeps there, they are much moar likely to be uneducated, poor, unhealthy, and vote Republican. That doesn't make Iowa the best place ever to live, but it makes it better than the south.

*sigh* NC has more than 3x the population of Iowa (NC: 9,848,060; Iowa: 3,090,416) living in a smaller space (NC: 52,672 sqr miles; Iowa 56,276 sqr miles). It is reasonable to conclude that NC has "more" of a lot of things than Iowa, based solely on the population delta. More millionaires, more opportunity, more Fortune 500 companies, more jerbs, more universities & colleges, and etc. However, your "higher concentration" claim above is hilariously invalid. It's like if I said, "Iowa has a higher concentration of inbred hicks than NC because they have nothing else to do out there in the middle of nowhere than fuck their fat sisters and/or livestock." Neither opinion holds water. You can't prove your bias with data or fact, so why are you positing it? I expected more from an engineer. I've literally provided data for every claim I've made. You've refused to accept any of it. And you call me a science denier.

. I wonder why population growth in the northern states states has slowed to a crawl (and in the case of MI, has shrunk) while is growing by double digits in the southern and western states? Because snow? www.census.gov/prod/cen2010/briefs/c2010br-01.pdfBecause Idiocracy?

I pay in the neighborhood of $1800/1000 sq ft, so far less than Dunder evidently.
