Budget Cuts May Hit Red States Harder

[John2]

4. You know

many of them did not vote for the president and put in this Republican Congress. I think they voted against their own interests. If you do leave each state on their own, the most tax base come from the most populous and urban areas. Take these red states with military bases. That is a huge part of their economies. North Carolina has a lot of them. If States like New Jersey and California kept all their revenues, they can solve a lot of their problems because of a bigger tax base. States like Wyoming, Nebraska, and Alaska would suffer because of smaller tax bases. That would apply to many Southern States also. And if you really want to cut to the chase, urban areas can operate a lot better without giving revenue to the state governments also. If the Cities of Charlotte, Raliegh and Durham did not send revenues to the state governments, they would be toast. And everyone of them are overwhelmingly Democratic.
