Hey Steve,
I'd be interested in a cite for this scenario (or are you just
espousing your opinion?), that "red states are more likely to lend
their own helping hand than those in blue states." I personally
believe that each state has "pockets" of people who have more to give
than others. But, your assertion isn't that. It's that people are
"more likely to lend their own helping hand," and having worked in
charitable organizations and volunteer activities in many states (I
get around), I'd like to know from what study this was obtained.
Thanks. Bev



The generosity index put out by the Catalogue of Philanthropy is
what most folks like to quote when making this argument. This is an older
article but it explains the issues some have with how the rankings are
determined.

And this is the rankings for the US and Canada for 2007.
