Thinking you wanna live healthy?? Living Blue State is living Healthy
Edited on Wed Jun-13-07 07:38 AM by rpannier
A new health-care ranking by The Commonwealth Fund scores every state in the union in five categories.
Here are the Top 10
1. Hawaii
2. Iowa (Blue, but flips back-and-forth)
3. New Hampshire (Rather red)
4. Vermont
5. Maine
6. Rhode Island
7. Connecticut
8. Massachussetts
9. Wisconsin
10. South Dakota (Red State)

Bottom Ten
41. Alabama
42. Georgia
43. Florida
44. West Virginia
45. Kentucky
46. Louisiana
46. Nevada (tie)
48. Arkansas
49. Texas (HAHAHAHAHAHA...Some puke told me one a couple of years ago that Texas is God's Country)
50. Mississippi
50. Oklahoma (tie) Damn...it's better to live in DC than Oklahoma.

They included Washington DC, that's why there is 51.

5. Thank you, sir
I changed my description to rather red.
I relied on my research from 2006 elections.
Thank you for the correction.

6. To be fair
I lived in Texas for a year. It's not a bad state. Just wish it was more liberal. I think it's been hurt by all the fundie x-tians that moved there -- and people like Ted Nugent
