We've been told for almost 50 years by republican chucklefucks that this would be a handout to the worst of society and that it was unaffordable. Yet New Mexico makes it work. This is what happens when competent people vote in their own interests instead and we stop listening to a party that hates themselves.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Nooo! I had to suffer, so EVERYBODY deserves to suffer!
Hey look, actual liberals doing actual liberalism. What a delightful change of pace

Not gonna lie, that’s a pretty compelling reason to move to New Mexico. Santa Fe is also a pretty fun little town with a cool art scene and killer food. The classic car scene there is also pretty rad.
What I don't understand is that New Mexico is such an outlier for shitty statistics as compared to other states, even blue ones. Like I feel nearly every ranking has New Mexico strangely near the bottom alongside the likes of Alabama and Mississippi. I've long wondered why that is.
Drive through New Mexico and it will become abundantly clear. There are only around 2 million people in the entire state. Half of the people live in 3 counties, and a lot of rest of the state is a whole lotta nothing, dying or dead towns, and single trailers separated by miles.
Clearly New Mexico has been taken over by MS13 antifa invaders and God King trump must send in the national guard to save us from the leftist hell scape they plan to impose on our glorious christian nation.
/s, if it wasn't obvious.
And college too!
