Like others say, better to normalize the population data. Give as a % per state.

Also agreeing with whomever said the color choice is odd. Red usually designates less, or something not good. Green more, or something good. Use a neutral color like blue or purple. Or even green, since generally more insured is considered good.

The market will turn around. Look at a max historical yearly return chart. It goes up with some (sometimes big) dips. "If" the market does not turn around we have bigger issues at hand, like a dystopian future on the short horizon.

Age or big purchases are also a factor though. If I were about to buy a house I'd pull out into cash because there's less time for a recovery before I buy. Or if I'm about to retire I'd move investments away from stocks /growth stocks and into something more conservative.

But that's just me.
