blue states do pay in more than they get back. it is a redistribution of wealth.””

The blue state of CA can easily afford to pay more since they have a few million illegals that don’t pay a dime but provide the cheap labor to support CA’s #1 industry, agriculture. Take away the illegal cheap labor and see what they can afford to pay in taxes.

Are you really buying into the liberal myth that illegals are a benefit to a particular economy? Come on. Whatever benefits illegals might provide to places like California are easily overshadowed by the costs- bankrupt hospitals, increased use of welfare services, crime etc.
