[QUOTE="Colter, post: 72155941, member: 90929"] And your opinions aren't based on your politics???? Perhaps those in the red states that vote for (R)'s are the net contributors to the Fed Gov from those states while the (D)'s are more likely to see the wisdom in receiving support? People tend to vote in their own self interest. The high taxes that (D) dominated blue states like NJ pay for your own states expenses, have nothing to do with Fed support for any other state! With 565 municipalities and 600 school districts, the tiny dense state of NJ[B] suffers from a great deal of cumulative bloated government excess over the years[/B]! So your ability to write off the mismanagement of your state isn't just keeping more of your own money, it's passing own your states mismanagement to the rest of the nation! School unions milk the state at ($19,076) per pupil! Public employee health benefits $16,008 per employee, 50% higher than any other state! NJ is #3 in the U.S for Medicaid expenditures at $8,309 per enrollee. #6 in the nation per capita debt $24,134. #9 unfunded pension at $108 Billion! #11 full career state employee pension at $41,253! So there is a bunch of people in your own state that receive quite a lot of tax dollar support!
