The analysis is good as far as it goes, but it really doesn't go far enough. What the author needs to do is look at government transfers at all levels on a by-precinct basis. Leave out entitlements and include only services and discretionary items, as he does for the federal expenditures. What he will find is that the blue precincts overwhelmingly take resources from state, federal, and local governments. He will also discover that the non-governmental costs of blue precincts is far higher than red ones: more crime, more illiteracy, more infant mortality, and more communicable disease.
