Copied and pasted the only parts worth reading from an AP article in regards to the state of Kansas and whats left of its economy. I "They passed massive tax breaks for the wealthy and repealed all income taxes on more than 100,000 businesses. They tightened welfare requirements, privatized the delivery of Medicaid, cut $200 million from the education budget, eliminated four state agencies and 2,000 government employees. In 2012, Brownback helped replace the few remaining moderate Republicans in the legislature with conservative true believers.The result, however, has been anything but what Brownback promised. Kansas has the country’s second-slowest GDP growth rate (0.4%) for the three years ending 2015, and is one of just nine states to actually have negative GDP movement between Q4 2014 and Q4 2015. Unemployment is low, but job growth has been anemic. Tax collections have fallen short of projections in 22 of the 30 months ending this past May, prompting deep and sudden spending cuts in everything from highway infrastructure to education. A bipartisan coalition of four former Kansas governors is even raising money "to help educate Kansas voters about the destructive policies of Sam Brownback and his supporters in the Kansas legislature."If this isnt sad enough just google "Kansas economy" but only if you're in the mood for a depressing evening
