Quote from Free Thinker:
another brilliant post by the et intelligensia. if your statement is true why is it that most red states receive more from the federal government than they pay in taxes?
intelligensia, is that your new phrase of the day, blow it out your ass dude.
So there are some poor states, red and blue. Plus I don't know where you got this info, but probably a lot of the poor red states are sparsely populated and receive farm subsidies.. if that is the case then you can chalk that up as the govts fault.
Who is responsible for the vast, unfunded entitlement programs, (obamacare will soon be on that list) which now cost more than defense? Who pushes for expansion for education and welfare programs? Which party invests in stupid shit like soyndra, or shuts down part of an entire industry because of an accident. Which party won't let us use our own natural resources? Is there really any question about which party costs the taxpayer more?
And before you blame Bush, just know I agree with you. He was a fake economic conservative, but he isn't running the show any more. I doubt we have any more big spender repubs. Obama and the dems just continue to spend more, have increased the size of the fed govt, and will cost all of us more with obamacare.
