But r politics told me blue states subsidize red states!
You could fit all of what those people don't know into the pacific ocean and it would finally sink Manhattan.
Nobody tell him.
God willing, I sure hope so. Ever seen that movie Kiss Kiss Bang Bang? I love this quote from it:
"I swear to God, it's like somebody took America by the East Coast, and shook it, and all the normal girls managed to hang on."
He's talking about women while at a party in Hollywood, but it fits for everyone else too.
They base that on the federal highway budget
The highways that get red state produce to blue state mouths
It also doesn't factor in welfare payouts, federal education funding, mass transit funding, government agency real estate, science funding, etc.
Cities receive way more money from the feds than rural states.
Very good to know, I wasn't sure what they based their argument on but I figured it was something they'd twist like that. Ty!
Yes
