Lol.. typical of the libturds, post half truth bullshit. I thought you libturds had some intelligence.
Democrats have an answer. They say the states should get the money, because blue states give more to the federal government than they get back from it. Red states take more than they pay. The bailout’s just returning the favor. Now it’s true that the average taxpayer in blue states pays a higher per capita income tax than the average taxpayer in red states. That’s because those states — particularly Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and California — have more rich people. Don’t the Democrats want the rich paying their fair share? As for blue states allegedly getting back less, what numbers are they looking at? It is true that red states receive 35.75% on average of their budgets from the federal government. Blue states receive only 30.80%. But the blue states get a lower percentage because their total budgets are far larger due to all the bloat and waste. The 10 states in the best fiscal condition are almost all red states. The 10 states in the worst condition are almost all blue. Why does this matter? The higher the taxes, the more mismanaged a state is. CNBC examined the infrastructure of every state, including roads, airports, water systems and ports. The places with the worst-rated infrastructure are six Democratic states, which also rank among the highest in taxes collected per resident: Connecticut, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York.
