[Alberta's Child]

What you're suggesting locks the federal spending in each state to a narrow range of what they contribute.

I think there's some confusion here. It's Congress that is suggesting this, not me -- I'm simply asking them to be consistent here, that's all.

I'm not confused. I don't agree with Congress's suggestion, and I think your suggestion to expand that suggestion is even worse.

So, I'd recommend that they be consistent and reject any notion of mandated directed spending for any tax source.
