But look at what states receive the most from the government, and compare that with what states are considered red or blue.
What you'll find is republican states are huge takers, sitting around on the couch all day collecting welfare that the democratic states pay for (also china). Republican states on average get 1.46$ in federal spending for every tax dollar paid, democratic states get 1.16$, and out of the 15 states that pay more than they get, 3/4ths are blue states.
The south, clearly needs to get a job and start making something of themselves.
