I must be against the states.
And, we wonder why we lost. 
I am 'anti-' capitalism because it has proven to be far too corruptible and too easily manipulated to extreme bias. It has nothing to do with a particular state except when it pertains to how much their greed is creating social imbalance.
Should we take a look at the states you mention and compare what they put into homelessness and social programs vs what they put into 'dick waving' projects and trying desperately to act like they are superior to everyone else while ignoring the starving and the sick on the streets?
I am not saying that they don't address these things, I am saying the ratio of spending on such things as opposed to, say, a new stadium that was built by giving some rich billionaire tax breaks and incentives is a bias that is destroying everything. Such might bring in a few jobs, but what is the ratio of help vs income for the wealthy? They get millions while their 25 new employees get dirt wages for making the rich person look good?
If they are 'heavily dependent', then they are complicit in the extreme bias that is going on in our 'economy'.
It needs to be stopped. Or, we can just keep things as they are and watch as all of this happens again...and again... assuming we survive this one.
