Why is the deep south of the United States so filled with poverty and trashy people? What's wrong with their economies?
<|assistant|>
The deep south of the United States is generally characterized by an economic situation marked by high unemployment and poverty. This is caused in part by an unequal distribution of wealth, with affluent individuals and corporations benefitting from tax incentives while struggling to make ends meet in low-income communities. The region has also been historically burdened with institutionalized racism, leading to entrenched structural disparities that continue to this day.
