Mother Jones website? Seriously?
How about you not being a dumb-ass.
As I told you..."Blue" states get more federal money. But it has NOTHING to do with them being Democrats.
It's simply the states with the Congressmen and Senators with the ability to funnel back the most money.
You really should take your political blinders off. You're being used by politicians in a make-believe game of "Republicans VS Democrats".
It's no more real than "Ric Flair VS Hulk Hogan"
And I showed you the REAL stats. The ones you are showing are ridiculous. New Mexico? Really? New Mexico only has a total of 2 million people. More people live here in Las Vegas.
And a lot of the people living in New Mexico are NATIVE AMERICANS.
And most of the "federal money" spent there is at Roswell.
You are so uninformed that it's almost comical. Stop reading biased websites for your info and get out in the world.
I've been in New Mexico many times. Beautiful EMPTY state. And some very cool tourist trap Indian Reservation setups. Complete with tee-pees and buffaloes and native americans in full dress.
Maybe you should get out of the house every once in a while?
Those elite writers at Mother Jones have never been outside the Washington Beltway and don't have a clue about the real America.
