then it does in backwoods of Mississippi?
The cost of living is higher up here.
ANOTHER THING. IS THE COST OF LIVING IN MEXICO CHEAP BECAUSE IT IS MORE "EFFICIENT"?
I DON'T THINK SO.
====================================
The clash over the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) is being fought largely between members of Congress from high-income states, such as Maryland, versus members from low-income states, such as South Dakota and Mississippi, which rank near the bottom in median household income.
In South Dakota, where the median household income is only $42,791, giving such a benefit to a family with an income of more than $61,000 seems excessive, according to Sen. John Thune, R-S.D.
“Low-cost, efficient states such as South Dakota... end up subsidizing higher costs in inefficient states,” complained Thune during the Senate debate.
