    That money is spent on the federal national defense highway system to deliver food to you people in the cities.

    Most of the Red states are the most impoverished, the reason for that is, that the GOP have successfully used religion to indoctrinate their population to accept plutocratic right wing ideology. In the blue states the people are better educated, and think more critically, so it's much harder to indoctrinate the people with plutocratic ideology, and the people have got more wealth to show for it.

    "Among the states, the District of Columbia had the highest level of state and local public welfare spending per capita at $5,332, followed by New York ($3,307), Alaska ($3,013), Massachusetts ($2,927), and Vermont ($2,843).3 Georgia spent the least on public welfare at $1,139 per person, followed by Utah ($1,171), South Dakota ($1,230), Florida ($1,294), and North Carolina ($1,318)."

    I imagine Trump is shouting at the GOP House members. "What do you mean you wanted the testimony to be out in the open?!!!"

    Not an argument most manufacturing is in the north were the south is more agricultural. So it stands to reason the northern states would be richer. But what you have lost sight of is every state contributes to the success of the country that is why we are the United States. Quit fighting the Civil War it's over get on with life.

    IF you have any doubts at all whether (R) policies work in real life, you only have to look at Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, Kansas, Ohio, and the rest. Lowest per capita incomes*, higher rates of obesity/diabetes/infant mortality**, and so on.

    If only the Mango Manchild realized this and acted/spoke/Tweeted accordingly. Instead, he revels in driving a wedge between the few who support him and the majority of us just regular Jane and Joe Citizens. Can you think of any other presidents who, when faced with a natural disaster in one or more of our states, threatened to cut off FEMA aid simply because they didn't vote for him, like Cheeto threatened California recently?
