This book describes a study of the 50 states by examining statistical information generated as a result of state policymaker's decisions or indecisions. More than 200 pages of narrative introduce the problem, describe the factors over which state governments exercise control, report the findings, and provide interpretations of results from both historical and statistical perspectives. The book is about those areas of human activity in which state governments exercise power and control: crime and punishment, health care and highways, schools and universities, and taxes and expenditures. State officials work diligently but often routinely to cope with problems and possibilities that state governments confront each day: death on he highways, potholes in the roads, murder in the streets, achievement in the schools, medical care for the elderly, taxation for resources, and expenditures for services. Policymakers, especially those concerned with re-election, often urge "no more taxes," "students must be accountable," or "we must get more businesses to come into the state," but information about such problems that is available to policymakers and cities alike is often inadequate, inaccurate, or politically biased. Statistical information from reliable sources on hundreds of variables over which state governments have either influence or control have been organized in this book in identical ways with each table showing every state's ranking on one variable (e.g., personal income; death from heart disease by race and gender; death from diabetes by race and gender; infant mortality; suicide rate; farm income; households with computers; R & D by industry; percent of workers in labor unions; workers' compensation; percent below poverty line; number of patents issued; number of prison inmates; murder; forcible rape; robbery; larceny; number of sworn police officers; alcohol consumed; automobile fatalities; seat belts not used in automobile deaths; clients in treatment for drug abuse; number of correction employees;
