“Any state that requires more than 45% of their annual budget to be Federally supplemented, for a period of 3 of 5 years (non-consecutive) summarily concedes their budgetary autonomy.”

Boom, Federal govt steps in, taxes all the freeloader states at appropriate levels, and levies Corporate taxes uniformly across the tier.

Who am I kidding tho, right? Neither Party would ever, EVER push back on their Corporate overlords. But my pipedream is nice, no?

53.6 percent of Louisiana’s budget comes from Federal funds. That’s up from 47 percent in 2011. So for over a decade, they have only INCREASED their dependency on the Federal govt to keep their economy running.

Fuck these regressive dicks. They can’t run their own State, they only exist to transfer public funds to private businesses. And those businesses turn around to grease the politicians’ palms.

They are running a SCAM. And pouring more Federal funds into this scam will NEVER do anything other than enrich the upper wealth layer already grifting the state. Cut them off at the knees. Make up the 53.6% in CORPORATE and Marginal Tax rates on the wealthy.

Freeloader Red states are such bums.

What about all the white women who voted for Trump? Benefitting from structural racism is a helluva drug

I think people are uncomfortable with how all the rights of modern America were forced from the hands of privileged white society. “Equality” is a threat from the perspective of the entitled.

“Unhinged Florida Boomer destroys lives…faces consequences of own actions”

No, mid as in “amid.” They’re in the ocean.
