Just because I like bragging on my home state...

.. I had to throw a copy of  this post out there on how Mississippi 2008 GDP compares to the top countries of the European Union (and Japan)

The only reason I put this here, is because I'm thinking maybe now the US should be expand globally?  That way Mississippi cannot say they're last :)

And what even makes it funnier? 


The 2007 chart only had Portugal below Missisisippi

Mississippi went up almost $5k while everyone else went flat...

Yeah, I know.. "You're still the worst state in the US..." But at least I can say, "they're not the worst in Europe" :)
