[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, OP.  You may be a Blue Stater, but you are not a good person.  We are all Americans, Red or Blue, senior or not, rich or poor.[/quote]

Uh, you realize the blue staters are willing to sacrifice personal income for the greater good, right?[/quote]

Lady, states pay no income taxes. It's people who do. Around 50% Americans pay federal income tax and subsidize the rest -- the poors in the cities and the poors in rural areas.[/quote]

Except the latter get a disproportionate amount of said taxes. That's the point. [/quote]

Not true, run the numbers. The urban poor are the main drain of public resources.[/quote]

Wrong. Quite wrong and there have been numerous studies and reports on this. Seriously you are dumb.[/quote]

Once upon a time, posters routinely included links to prove their arguments.  Now we call each other dumb.

No links, no intelligent discussion, just name-calling.  Sad, DCUM.  [/quote]

Oh my gosh, it took me all of 5 minutes to find on Google. Why are you lazy, PPs?

That's irrelevant to this diacussion. We already know the rich tend to be in coastal states, which vote blue. The question is, who's sucking most taxpayer money, the urban or the rural poor?

To give you an example. DCPS spends more than $15k per student -- a majority of whom are urban poor. Do you really think some poor district in the middle of nowhere Arkansas is spending $15k per kid?[/quote]

The difference is that DC can afford it.  [/quote]

You are not answering the question.[/quote]

Not the PP but frankly if you gave Arkansas $15k per kid they'd probably be wasting it on "Creation Science" curriculum.  :roll: [/quote]
