What I really like about the current level of back-stabbing dysfunctionality is that soon goober Jeff Sessions will get the heave-ho right after he is replaced with another inbred fifth generation parasite. Thus the number two backwards welfare colony in the entire country will lose three terms worth of very precious Senate seniority.
(Such a high price for having taken the lower than whale$nit TrumpGrifterâ„¢ seriously! How cool is THAT?) Every pot smoker in the country will rejoice, every corrupt red state slimeball looking to build and populate more private prisons right now will, ahem, "return home devastated.")
This pattern of longevity in the Senate has a whole lot to do with places like Mississippi extorting a staggering 47 percent of their operating income from the educated productive part of the country every year at tax time. (Make that every year since 1866, I'd sure like to see anyone pull that stunt off anywhere in the private sector?) Also with how they had kept all their own military bases when the Cold War ended but the blue states did not.
While they sanctimoniously lectured their blue state benefactors on "fiscal conservatism" every step of the way of course. When in reality every dollar they send into Washington comes right back to them with another two dollars pasted to the top of it.
What with 20 percent of their own state's population on Food Stamps no less. Plus an absolutely absurd close to 10 percent of the six toed cracker apes who live there gleefully retired on SSI "Disability" nowadays, often in their early thirties and of course watching Fox all day long.
(So many that all those unemployable TrumpChumpâ„¢ leeches had already torched their way right through the 85 year old SSI Disability trust fund and that has all happened just since 2011 as well.)
Politics and Fox-cultivated insecure racist ignorance aside; this situation of deluded "Disability" dependency persists only because you can actually live on $500-$700 a month down there and you certainly can't do that in Massachusetts or Illinois.
