I don't think anybody is gaslighting. This report is all about facts, and all I was trying to do was point out another fact. The point remains that republicans are really popular in the places where there is less opportunity.

Here is a point I will make that is political: The places that are run by very liberal local governments, such as California and New York have the majority of the growth. I always see these articles about how business and people are fleeing to low tax places. Except the growth continues to swamp that effect.
