TL;DR: Mississippi has had lots of federal money to help the poor. It was mostly stolen. They’re jailing the reporters who exposed this instead of the theives

I’ve said it hundreds of times before and I’ll say it again: Mississippi is the worst state.
It isn’t in the (inter)national news for being awful as much as Florida and Texas, but that’s because those are rich “Hollywood Awful” states.
Mississippi is more of a destitute “1970s village in a swamp governed by the most racist and corrupt ogres ever” kind of awful.
There’s a saying in the south: “Thank God for Mississippi”
Because as shitty as Southern States are, Mississippi is always there to be worse.
SNL has all the debates except the one with clinton vs bush snr and perot where they say some stuff about arkansas and I swear he makes a comment about them being better than mississippi.
Louisiana likes to give them a run for their money occasionally. Both of those states have areas that are like third world countries, and the average education level is lolcow low.
Oof, I dunno. Alabama though.
The unofficial motto of Alabama is “thank God for Mississippi” because in most statistics Mississippi is the only thing keeping Alabama from being at the bottom with regards to anything positive and at the top with regards to anything negative 😄
