Arkansas also has the highest rate of maternal mortality, horrible schools, and children working in meat packing plants. So congrats on that conservative leadership, hun.

It was ranked 45th in 2023
Health: Forbes ranked Arkansas in the top 5 least healthy states. Has high mortality rates: leading causes of death, including cancer, heart disease, respiratory disease, and diabetes.
Arkansas has high state and local sale taxes.
Arkansas is prone to natural disasters.
Except Arkansas ranked 47th out of 50 states in The Commonwealth Fund's Scorecard on State Health System Performance. Arkansas ranked 39th for health care access, and 42nd for health care quality. Arkansas ranked 45th for health and well-being of older adults.
It’s funny how Red States, WV included, refuse to give credit to the bipartisan infrastructure bill for their sudden “economic growth.” Take those investments away, they’re still rock bottom.
Yes. And also the GOP legislators who opposed the bill, and voted against it, took credit for it anyway. So most folks give no credit to Democrats, regardless.
Back in the 80's they used
to say 'fake it til you make it.'
Well now in the 21st century
we've got fakers and frauds
who certainly 'made it' but
have nothing to offer but their
own dismal mediocrity dressed
up as counterfeit charisma.
“Lowest cost of living” isn’t the selling point she wants us to believe, given that they also rank 49th in per capita income. They’re also next to
last on the teen pregnancy rate. Mississippi (another red state) is dead last on both of those measures.
"Arkansas has higher rates of several diseases and other causes of death compared to other states. The state ranks No. 1 in chronic lower respiratory diseases, such as emphysema, and No. 3 in heart disease, diabetes and kidney disease rates, according to the CDC.Feb 14, 2022"
The Arkansas state sport is Arkansas State police car chases on YouTube.
When the chase leaves the interstate and takes the back roads, the poverty is evident.
That was the grossest state I’ve ever been to. Woke up to see the hotel main building was standing but in various states of demo except the front desk, all coffee tasted like it had a side of mold (Waffle House & gas station), & everything just looked dirty and 3rd world & that was in 2009
Anyone who can afford to leave, left
Those still there are on low wages so couldn't afford anything unless it was made as cheap as possible
Cosy of living being low doesn't mean anything if all you can buy is dirt cheap for a reason
If you keep people poor enough prices will fall and exploitive employers will flock there. Soon more people afraid of starvation will arrive. Then one day automation will replace those jobs. Don’t forget the gubernatorial chopper to airlift your fat ass out of there. Get a Chinook.
Darlin💅🏽 when you only rank against yourself perhaps that’s a brag, but umm 🤔
AK v US ranked in the following categories in 2023:
Crime & Corrections: 49th
Economy: 35th
Education: 43rd
Fiscal Stability: 19th
Health: 47th
Infrastructure: 40th
Natural Environment: 34th
Opportunity: 29th
Among the highest child mortality as well as maternal. Ranked #47 in overall educational levels and with over 16% living below the poverty line. Those conservatives are doing really well!
You can guess where she pulled these data points from. In 2024, AK ranked 4th for cost of living, behind WV, OK, and KS. AK is behind SC, NC, and WY regarding people moving into states. With child labor, AK's economic growth was the highest at 6.9%. Just imagine if slavery wasn’t illegal.
In other words, it's cheap to live here & people are moving here because every place else is too expensive. It's a last resort. Businesses can start up here easily, pay slave labor and keep people poor. Not something to brag about when you see these other rankings. https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/arkansashen
These issues must be addressed. It’s horrible. If Dems ever defeat the system that keeps putting gop morons in power. (propaganda interference from oligarchs, Russia, gerrymandering, electoral college). Dems failed to communicate to uneducated voters. They were primed for a savior & the plan worked.
Maybe. I always shake my head when ppl move to a state with poorer quality of life for the poor, women and children and comfort themselves that they pay less in taxes, rent etc. There are always prices to be paid. Huckabee is delighted to loosen regs, price to be paid for that as well.
Anywhere in the south is a bit sketchy, beautiful country and some nice folks but the religious right and the GQP politicians run rampant there and effectively ruin the lives of others.
I can’t believe Sarah Huckabee-Sanders is bragging about Arkansas. I mean it’s ARKANSAS! One of my son’s girlfriend’s has a cousin who lives there. Housing is fairly inexpensive, but SALARIES are TERRIBLE. Most people don’t make much more than minimum wage.

But I've said too much already...

And they’re near the bottom on life expectancy.
I'm sure that'll work. /s

Guessing its for the same reason why its cheaper to live in Somalia or Haiti as compared to the United States.

A former of teacher of hers said she was among the dumbest students she taught!
