Don’t be obtuse. You know exactly what I’m talking about. The receiving states can do whatever they want with the money. In reality they’re subsidizing their citizens. It’s part of the deal for being the US. Rich people pay more taxes than poor people. It’s the complete lack of awareness of basic financial reality - of where the money comes from - that galls me.

And death before secession. Part of the deal is that the more successful states subsidize the struggling states. Having my hand bitten is too much though. I also think the people benefiting from the largesse should have some idea where the money comes from.
What is your reason for demanding fealty from a dependent state, exactly?

1. I referenced a specific provision on Federal tax subsidies for state and local income and property taxes.MilSpecs wrote: ↑Thu Jun 28, 2018 3:44 pmAnd this is why we should all learn finance. NJ subsidizes other states, not the other way around. We send far more to the government than we get back. Other states have been living off us for a very long time, and trump is well aware of this. When the well runs dry (when trump has drained it off to benefit himself), it will not just be us who are screwed. It will be those states, who voted for trump, who will also be screwed when the money stream stops and they have to pay their own way.
You are killing the cow and eating today, but when the feast ends we will all be left with nothing.
- States like Jersey set their taxes, then ask for relief from the Federal Government, that's Bullshit
2. You send more to government than you get in return, different issue
3. when trump has drained it off to benefit himself
- Explain how Trump is pocketing money here.
4. We won't be screwed when it all goes broke, we can feed ourselves, you can't

Yes. I live in a prosperous first world country. I like roads and airports. I'm particularly fond of electricity and vaccines and national defense. I like many things that are possible when we pool our money.Fife wrote: ↑Thu Jun 28, 2018 4:47 pmKeep your shit, "rich people." Just keep it.

He's a libertarian. He dreams of living like a wildman, but he does not want to give up ice cream and electric blankets.

Also, will the media call him Hispanic or white? I always love a good mystery.
$20 DCF bucks he’s a lefty....The page’s bio read: “Dear reader: I created this page to defend myself. Now I'm suing the s--- out of half of AA County and making corpses of corrupt careers and corporate entities.”
