On the article Public Integrity Group Gives South Carolina an 'F'

ReplyStanley,
There is no way CA is the bluest state. And the only reason it was brought it up in the first place was to compare sunshine--which was strictly hypothetical.
As Tom notes SC is far more red than CA is blue. A better comparison to SC redness would be MA or MD. -

That's precisely the point. It's relative. And compared to other states South Carolina came out the worst. All the states were given the same criteria and South Carolina scored a zero.
Your interpretation of the results is extremely generous. It's like saying: "It's sunny in South Carolina 100 percent of the time. And it's sunny in California 50 percent of the time. But since California is so much bigger it gets more sun."That's of little consolation to the 50 percent people in California without sun. Similarly, the fact SC is a smaller state is of little consequence when it's considered to be completely corrupt.

I'm with JoSCh on this one...I'm against political groups having non-profit status and actually, I'd need to be convinced that any group merits being tax free.

Kenny,
At the time of the operation the child was an orphan and a ward of the state. That's why the DSS is being sued.
