Return on Statehood: How Much Value Every State Gets From the Federal Government
Red States Lead With Federal Dependence
Democratic-voting blue states tend to be wealthier and pay more to the federal government than they get. In contrast, Republican-voting red states tend to have less wealth and receive more federal government funds than they pay. In the MoneyGeek rankings, 8 of the 10 most dependent states are considered red states.
Nine states sent more to the federal government than they received ? seven of these were Democrat-voting and had higher per capita GDPs than many of the red states that received the most.

Well if Biden blames Trump...trump must have done it...
Biden blames TRUMP voters and 'conservative folks' for Democrat's loss in Virginia: President's bizarre excuse for Youngkin's victory when people are 'upset about COVID and the price of gasoline'
Biden blamed Donald Trump's supporters for Democrat Terry McAuliffe losing the Virginia gubernatorial race
'I'm not sure that I would be able to have changed the number of very conservative folks who turned out and the red districts who were Trump voters,' Biden said during a White House event on Wednesday
The president said that he continues to bring up Trump 'because the issues he supports are affecting their lives every day, and their negative impact on their lives'
'People are upset and uncertain about a lot of things ? from COVID to school to jobs to a whole range of things, and the cost of a gallon of gasoline,' he said
Biden was speaking Wednesday about the CDC approving COVID-19 vaccines for kids 5-11
Shell-shocked Democrats were reassessing what went wrong after losing the Virginia governor's race
Lawmakers pointed to the failure to pass Biden's domestic agenda and progressives issued stark messages
Progressive said McAuliffe's campaign 'had no rebuttal to Republican race-baiting bull****'
Moderate Democrats have called for an end to the infighting that has blocked spending bill talks
Joe Manchin called the Virginia results 'unbelievable' and said it shows Dems need to focus more on issues
Youngkin beat Terry McAuliffe in Virginia, while New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy was clinging to narrow lead

Trump sweeps Election Day, goes 4-0
With his post-election popularity and influence at the highest, the former president?s four endorsed candidates in Tuesday?s elections all won, highlighted by Virginia Gov.-elect Glenn Youngkin, the rookie politician who beat lifetime pol Terry McAuliffe.
In Ohio?s 15th Congressional District, Mike Carey was elected to Congress in a special election to succeed former Rep. Steve Stivers. Carey is a former coal lobbyist who Trump picked out of a crowded primary of 11 candidates.
In the general election, Trump issued multiple endorsements of Carey, recorded a robocall, and hosted a telerally to help the Republican beat his Biden-endorsed opponent.
Trump also scored in the race for borough president of Staten Island, New York. He backed Vito Fossella 48 hours before the primary election in June. In the general election, he also taped a robocall, and Fossella won big last night 60%-30%.
In his victory speech, Fossella repeatedly thanked Trump and told supporters, ?Tell President Trump what Staten Island thinks of what he has done!?
In the mayor?s race for Hialeah, Florida, Trump endorsed Esteban ?Steve? Bovo, who avoided a runoff, winning 59% of the vote against a former mayor of Hialeah.
Jack told Secrets, ?In 2020, his record in congressional special and primary elections was 120-2, and last night, he was 4-0 in general elections in Virginia, Ohio, New York, and Florida. Results don?t lie.?

Haven't been to the grocery store in a while cuz it's just me and the hubby and I'm a stocker upper person when things are on sale so I don't buy that much but we needed some meat and veges.
Went with the hubby and I had to ask him if the price on the package of meat (NOT THAT MUCH MEAT and not a high quality cut) was over $25.
So............. that is what we're upset about. The price of groceries, gas, rent (if we're renters with expiring leases).
No wonder people are stealing things at the grocery store.

Is this one of your Covid Pychosis posts? From what I understand, the Republican candidate distanced themselves from Trump which analysts are saying helped them get those victories.
But to be fair, I heard Biden say that if the bill had passed, results would have been different... I don't agree. You know there would be backlash... that's just how it is, squeaky wheel gets the grease.

From what I understand?,
(CNN)Virginia's Republican candidate for governor, Glenn Youngkin, has walked a fine line in his embrace of former President Donald Trump. He's declared Trump "represents so much of why I'm running," and has said he's "honored" by Trump's endorsement in the tight gubernatorial race against Democrat Terry McAuliffe.
