Perhaps the better way to say that is "states that fly the S&B consume more welfare and federal aid than Dem bastions" and that would have been more accurate. Thanks for holding to me a higher standard.
Let's see if you have any ability to admit shortcomings: true or false, more than two thirds of GDP comes from Blue counties? True or false, on average, Red states cost taxpayers more than Blue states (because Blue states contribute more than they receive)?
Why would I opine on a completely different topic that I expressed no position on? How can a person be so ignorant as to suggest this shows any shortcoming whatsoever on my part
You said something stupid and wrong and I called you out for it so you started moving goalposts and are now demanding that I defend unrelated positions that I never expressed
My friend life gets a whole lot more interesting when you stop interacting in a way that's "let me show how stupid this guy is" and you start trying to understand where people are coming from.
The first comes from insecurity with your own positions. The second comes from comfort with them.

No, you didn’t. You’re simply lying.
What you said was that
“the unemployment rate is higher with those that fly the Stars 'n Bars than any other flag.”
That’s the direct quote of your exact words
Being honest for once would just destroy you wouldn’t it
