13. Conservative policy

If you look at the Red States, it's stark. They are the porest, least healthy, most incarcerated, least educated, and have the highest crime rates. Those things decrease life span.

I have no idea why Dems have sat and wathced Republican make California and Chicago out to be some hellscapes without responding with the state of the Southern States who have near universal rule by Republicans.

No offense to Alabama, Arkansas, or Mississippi, but Dems should be running ads non stop showing what Conservatism has done to those states in terms of poverty, crime, hunger, health, and education. Or at least run ads about how these states have the highest income gaps between the elite and the rest of the people.
