摘要: We examine business cycle divergence and consumption risk sharing within the United States over the last two decades. While doing so, we also separately restrict the sample to only those states whose populations have consistently voted either Republican (red) or Democrat (blue) in national elections. Examining GDP growth within the two color regions, we find that the business cycles of the two regions have diverged since the start of this century, and they behave as if they are internationally distinct: measured by GDP, their business cycles are as asynchronous as some international country pairs. However, when we examine consumption risk sharing, we find that the Red and Blue regions are well integrated with each other. Their asynchronous business cycles enable the two regions to share consumption risk through capital market integration, fiscal federalism, credit markets, and interstate migration. Little or no state GDP differences are (likely to be) ameliorated by changes in relative prices. Looking at all of the United States, and we find that the red/blue divide is indicative of the country as a whole: while GDP is asynchronous, consumption risk is shared throughout the country as a whole (probably) occurs through the same channels.
