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.
I can go to 10 different places and get 10 different break downs on where the money goes, so lets not delute ourselves into thinking that dems are not HUGE waisters of my tax dollars. Don't know about your state, but I'm sure its the same as mine, the lions share of tax money goes to the the inner city, the bluest part of the state(the crazy part is the more they spend, the worse it gets) I'm no appoligist for the republican party, but as bad as they are, the democrats are way worse. Just look at the deficit under Obama, the wars are winding down, yet spending goes through the roof.

All I can say is, stop listening to what they are telling us, and start watching what they are doing. Bush ramrodded the the Patriot Act though, Obama is bending us over with Obamacare, don't know which is scarier. Look at where the federal government is, they now are controlling heath care, the insurance industy, the auto industry, the banking industry, none of which is constitutional. You know the founding fathers are looking down thinking how did you let this happen.
