In point of fact, every single Red state like YOUR'S receives more in pork and federal funds than every other Blue state. Every Red state receives more in federal funding than it pays in taxes. Every Blue state receives less in federal funding than it pays in taxes. Every Red state is in the bottom half of the list in education, healthcare, the environment, new infrastructure and jobs. |
