Why should the rest of the country subsidize these states that seem to believe that they do not have to follow immigration rules and want us to pay for all the freebies they give away.

Let them work on their state politicians to reduce their tax burdens by dropping some of the stupid things their taxes are used for.

“Why should the rest of the country subsidize these states that seem to believe that they do not have to follow immigration rules and want us to pay for all the freebies they give away.”

Sheer ignorance.

Taxpayers in these states are subsidizing the freeloaders in the Red states. Almost all blue states pay more in income taxes than they receive in benefits.

Almost all red states receive more in federal expenditures than they pay in income taxes.

As examples I cite Texas, which receives $1.50 for every federal tax dollar (and is THIRD in net benefit of SALT deductions), and North Carolina which receives nearly $8!, $8! for every tax dollar sent to DC.
