Then you are an idiot.

Blue State, Red Face: Guess Who Benefits More From Your Taxes?

Picking up on yesterday's theme, the fiscal cliff, let's look at the wider context to the argument between left and right over taxes and spending
cuts.

Michael Moran

Michael Moran is an author and geopolitical analyst.

There are serious economists who study the difference between what our
states pay in taxes and how much they get in return from the U.S.
government. These people generally don’t draw political, let along moral, judgments from these numbers...

Perhaps we should be instead discussing the justification for 'paying'
and 'getting in return'...

I don't see where any 'getting in return' is authorized by the
Constitution. If we were to get back to the original intent of the
union, this entire discussion is summarily vaporized.
