Blue States, You're the Problem - Why do states with Democratic majorities fail to live up to their values?

[Libtards Can't Stop Thinking About Trump]

It’s easy to blame the other side. And for many Democrats, it’s
obvious that Republicans are thwarting progress toward a more equal
society.

But what happens when Republicans aren’t standing in the way?

In many states — including California, New York and Illinois —
Democrats control all the levers of power. They run the government.
They write the laws. And as we explore in the video above, they
often aren’t living up to their values.

In key respects, many blue states are actually doing worse than red
states. It is in the blue states where affordable housing is often
hardest to find, there are some of the most acute disparities in
education funding and economic inequality is increasing most
quickly.

Instead of asking, “What’s the matter with Kansas?” Democrats need
to spend more time pondering, “What’s the matter with California?”
