[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps people have missed that Wyoming and Vermont have less residents?[/quote] What’s your point? Vermont wouldn’t become a state today. Wyoming actually provides a lot through oil and gas drilling. So even though the amount of residents isn’t high, the tax dollars are. [/quote] In fiscal 2018, Wyoming paid $4,930,650 in federal tax revenue. The District of Columbia paid $28,443,717: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_tax_revenue_by_state#Fiscal_Year_2018[/quote] BOOM. Curious why Puerto Rico is on that list when its residents don’t pay federal taxes, though. Weird.[/quote] I think they pay payroll taxes (SS Medicare), but not income taxes.[/quote]
