Red State Socialism

32 states receive more money than they give back to the federal government. 27 of these (84%) are traditionally red states. Of course. Is anyone surprised?

Love it. Now, I am not going to jump out there and get pissed off that states receive federal money. I would hope that, for the most part, the federal dollar is well spent. But the hypocrisy is always funny. Particularly Alaska: The state with enough money to give money back to its residents, has radical secessionist groups, and is always, of course, saying “thanks, but no thanks”
