People will never agree on politics, so why don't democrat states stop giving the republicans their gibs and wait until they come begging back?
most of these are farm subsidies though

Dems could grow their own food or import it from third world shitholes. No reason for the gibs

Knew we were good for something other than Lovecraft and Gansett

Just so happens to be right at the boarder where all the illegal gibbies are flowing in. I wonder. I'm also pretty sure NM votes Democrat in most elections? Why is it red here?

See map related, niggers everywhere in these states. When you have to live with 25%+ of your population being welfare sucking niggers, of course your state will go red as the rest of the people get sick of them.
Next question I have is what kind of federal dollars are we talking here? Is this for everything, or just for welfare? If it is the former, it would make sense that states with large areas of federal land in the name of national parks (Alaska, ND, Montana, Wyoming) would be high on the list. I would also imagine a lot of old people, who suck money up from SS and Medicare, contribute a lot to these numbers as well.
This doesn't even get into the fact that places like Illinois may not take away much federal money because they themselves as a state are going into a mountain of debt for the gibs. Same goes with CA as well. While it is all fine and dandy to not be taking the feds' money for your social programs, running your own state into debt for them instead is no better.
Point being, STFU OP. You and this retarded "researcher" have no idea what you're even talking about in regards to how American government works.

What's that money going to?
http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_reckoning/2012/10/25/blue_state_red_face_guess_who_benefits_more_from_your_taxes.html
Anti-poverty. Farm Subsidies. Military spending. Space program. Indian reservations.
I bet if you also looked at non-taxpayers by state you'd see an interesting trend too.

>dems growing their own food
The problem is that blacks won't work and mexicans can't withstand the cold. No slave labor for any of new england for farming.

shit, thanks.

>Dems could grow their own food
Then why don't they do it already? If they can create a controlled climate to grow enough food to feed 8 million people in a city, then why has it yet to happen? Where would all of the space to grow all of that food come from? Cosmopolitans aren't going to eat pork and corn everyday either, they love their expensive fancy food and I have a hard time imagining the city would have an easy time fulfilling those promises. #Resist is great and all until all of those pampered Millennials can't have muh avocados on everything. Which leads me to the next point...
>Import it from third world shitholes.
In such a situation where the cities have broken away and are now their own sovereign nations (no way you're getting the entirety of each blue state to go along with splitting from the Union), the Union would control the waterways, air, borders, and most crucially, the military. No food is getting through from Third world shitholes in such a situation. The Civil War proved a precedent to breaking away from the Union, and such a precedent allows us to starve off the traitors until they come crawling back.
