Mitt Romney’s state of debt

January 17th, 2008, 4:07 pm · Post a Comment · posted by Jim Ripley

  Tax-supported state debt in Massachusetts is $4,153 for every man, woman and child.

That’s according to state by state data from Moody’s Investors Service compiled by Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano’s office.  Arizona is nowhere close.

Massachusetts improves when you sort the data by personal income.  The state drops all the way to second place for the highest debt behind Hawaii.

George Bush plunged this nation into debt.  Will Mitt Romney up the ante?  Massachusetts data would suggest so.
