“So I’m already supporting and giving to these people.
As a group, the blue states voted for more government, not less. So let them have the government solve their problems, and I will continue to give to them by way of my taxes.”
Actually it is the other way around. Federal taxes from New Jersey taxes benefit North Carolina not visa versa.
New Jersey gets back 61 cents of every dollar they paid in Federal income taxes. A net loss of 39 cents.
North Carolina gets back $1.08 for every dollar they paid in Federal income taxes. A net gain of 8 cents.
I personally am not interested in finding out someones political affiliation before helping them out in a disaster. Yes we can all agree that liberalism stinks and I don’t have any love for them or their ideas but I will never deny any American (including a liberal) a helping hand if they geniunely need one.
What’s the source for those figures?
