In the states. The blue states call the red states the "welfare states." Simply put, the 5 blue states pay for ALL the red states services combined because they're so poor and dilapidated and broken and uneducated. Poor little fellas vote so heavily against their own interests, they should be so lucky to have those 5 blue states.
Last time I checked Florida & Texas were exempt from that particular "all red states" grouping.
Florida and Texas receive massive federal subsidies, paid for with the taxes generated, primarily, from these blue states.
Sounds like communism.
Hey watch it with that C word... they prefer the other C word.. capitalism. That benefits far fewer more important people.
No, when it only ever goes one way its fine.
