Iowa has the lowest economic growth rate in the country.

Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased in 47 states and the District of Columbia in the fourth quarter of 2021, as real GDP for the nation increased at an annual rate of 6.9 percent, according to statistics released today by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis. The percent change in real GDP in the fourth quarter ranged from 10.1 percent in Texas to –2.3 percent in Iowa (table 1).

Iowa's the lowest. This during a great national surge.

Way to go Kim! Putting the rich in charge of the economy didn't work did it?

Dod you know that Iowa is the only state that hasn't doubled in population in the last century?
