Last week, CNBC issued two lists — “These are America’s 10 best states to live and work in for 2023” and “These are America’s 10 worst states to live and work in for 2023” — and these lists have been cited in dozens of headlines across the country. Just quickly scanning the lists, however, I noticed a distinct pattern. Here are the CNBC lists, to which I’ve added (a) the two U.S. Senators from each state, and (b) the percentage of the state’s vote received by Joe Biden in 2020:
What a coincidence that every senator from CNBC’s “10 worst states” is a Republican, and Trump won every one of those states in 2020. And by the same remarkable coincidence, Biden won every one of CNBC’s “10 best states,” which have 17 Democratic senators, two “independents” (both of whom caucus with Democrats) and the nominal Republican Susan Collins. But can it really be true that, e.g., New Jersey is a better state “to live and work in” than, e.g., Florida? Is there anyone in Winter Haven or Apopka who would rather be living in Camden or Newark?
