Hi yall,
Most Red states get more back from the Feds than they pay into with taxes. Only a couple Red States like Texas and maybe Florida give more in taxes than they get back. Granted a lot of the Red State federal spending is on military bases and and interstates and stuff like that. However Blue States like California and New York and Illinois typically pay more into the system with taxes than they get back. Most Blue States are Donor states. New Mexico is a blue state and it is the most federally dependent state. Texas is prolly the Red State that is the most economically strongest.
