Liberalism Is Dangerous to Your Wallet and Your Health By Stephen Moore
The most recent jobs report found that nine of the 10 states with unemployment rates above 14% are in liberal blue states.

With 1 out of 4 workers having filed for unemployment and many more working from home, tens of millions of Americans have free time to march in the streets.
