And the reality is that the real deficit spending in the country is in Bush states, where far more is spent there by the federal government than tax revenue is generated.
Here's the irony. So-called "welfare states" like California and New York more than pay their way in the federal system. In fact, the surplus taxes they pay subsidize conservative states like Arizona, Mississippi, Idaho and other states that consistently vote to cut spending that benefits the states paying the taxes, while increasing spending on their own services-- all while not paying their fair share. |
Looks like i struck a nerve. Thanks for clearing up my confusion, and citing that information from some guys website that posted it himself. That's like quoting another (*)(*)(*)(*)ing forum....or yourself somewhere else on this forum. Thanks
