The reason for the discrepency is the progressive nature of our income tax. My state has one of the worst ROI's out there... it's because we have the highest per capita income in the nation. NJ has the worst ROI because it's the second highest per capita income.

So liberals are responsible for this, not conservatives.

Check out this link to the St. Petersburg Times.
It has the federal spending database (data as of January).
Interesting stuff. You can query by state.

"I expect to get a lot of it simply because, you know, I'm very persuasive and I'm like, you know, a tick that hangs on it and will not let go until I get what I want," Schwarzenegger told reporters outside Stevens' Capitol office.

Unfortunately, I expect him to get it, too.

Depends on what your definition of "it" is.
