Red states all over the US have fared awfully, except Texas, which might as well be member of OPEC.

Newsflash they haven't stopped making automobiles they just moved to right to work states in the south and Mexico. They were driven there by the economic climate of Detroit and its relationship to the unions (corruption, cronyism, etc all of the things you blame for the failings of other leftist systems that haven't actualized the dream)
