How about this rule for government efficiency?
Each state will be capped in receiving federal money to the state and its citizens in the current fiscal year at the rate the state produced federal revenue to the US treasury in the previous fiscal year.

Which states do you think would be ****ed by this rule?

Why bother sending it to the feds in the first lace just to wash it through the bureaucracy?

Shouldn't richer states have to pay their "fair share?"

Citizens in those states should have to pay a higher tax rate.

I don't think that plan would go the way the DUmmie thinks.  They think all the blue states pay more to the fed gov't.  They're wrong.

CA would definitely be in trouble.  CA is NOT the maker state they think it is and last I checked it was on the taker list.

I know that California would be and hard. California gets more in welfare and medicaid than Florida or Texas does in total from the feds. So your DUmbass DUmb idea is, get this, really DUmb.
