Um, you know that us liberals pay way more to the fed than we get back, while conservative states take more from the fed than they pay in, right? Even with the stimulus, we get back fewer tax dollars than we put in. Red states, on the other hand, take the government handouts and run, having their programs paid for by us liberals.
By the way? We also grow everything you eat, and make everything you see on tv.

Good decision since it's only logical. I worry about it getting overturned further up the line, though.
