    PSA, in 2021 Kansas received about $7.1 Billion in aid from the federal government, accounting for about 16.8% of its annual revenue. Cutting taxes at home with your hand out for federal funds is kinda BS.

      I’ve thought before that this would be a great way to push back against Trump.

      Have every democratic state withhold federal funding (in a separate account, ready to pay) until basic human rights and constitution clauses(???) are upheld.

      I can virtually guarantee that most democratic states are financially supporting republican states… and that’s socialism.

      It’s socialism and a handout and they know it, but are too ignorant and entitled to change anything.
