Dennis Prager argues Minnesota's crime rate now exceeds the national average under Governor Tim Walz, student achievement has dropped despite higher school spending, and high-income earners are leaving the state while lower-income residents arrive. Energy costs have risen well above the national average.
Under Walls, Minnesota became a high-crime state for the first time ever. Right now, in fact, as of, as of 2020, the Minnesota crime rate surpassed the U.S. crime rate. I'm looking at a chart of it. Under Walls, student achievement tumbled even as spending on schools skyrocketed. Of course, because Democratic Party is owned and operated by teachers unions. Which are among the most destructive institutions in the United States of America. Increases in energy costs have far outstripped the national average, which is really something because the national average is awful. And under Walls, Minnesota has joined New York, California, and Illinois as a state people of all ages are fleeing. This is quite a chart. The number of people making $200,000 or more— in fact, $100,000 is even more— who are leaving the state. But people who make under $25,000, that's an increase. Everybody else is leaving.
