Red States Thrive While Blue States Suffer
Democrats didn’t expect this.
Just when Democrats least expected it, the Republican-controlled state of Florida experienced an economic boom and actually became a bigger workforce than New York for the first time in history.
According to Fox, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released a new report which found that Florida has 9.669 million employed workers while the Democrat state of New York has 9.661 million.
A spokesperson for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis explained, “As Governor DeSantis said in his second inaugural speech, ‘It is often said that our federalist constitutional system — with fifty states able to pursue their own unique policies — represents a laboratory of democracy.’ Florida has exemplified the successful example of freedom, and our success is revealed in metrics like this.”
What’s even more troubling for President Biden and the Democrats is that Florida also led the entire country on new business formations with more than 1.7 million formed since January 2020.
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, New York had 9.8 million jobs when Florida only had 9.1 million jobs.
Democrats should take notes and examine Florida’s leadership if they are aiming to repair their broken economic system which has resulted in excess homelessness and crimes.
