And here is a screenshot of the relevant data
Texas clocks in at $1.21 receivers for every $1 sent to the federal government.
According to this, all but 3 states receive more than they contribute, and Texas is roughly 17th out of 50 in terms of receiving the least amount back. I guess I don’t understand how Texas could be singled out in a dataset like this
Nobody singled them out, yes dozens of states like texas are massively subsidized by the federal government
Are we reading the same comments
Idk show me a comment where they said texas is the only one or something?
