We have states that pay $1.40 for every dollar they get back from the feds already. Why would equalization payments caused civil war?

Populism is in style right now, Franzl so it could be sold as an anti-recessionary measure. I'm not advocating it, just seeing how badly it'd muck up things.

I'm curious. Why would formal regional redistribution make things less corrupt?

And even with formal redistribution payments how do you plan on stopping them from voting for pork anyways?

No, it's your guys fault for all the propositions that mandate spending but don't say a word about where to get it from.

Let's not forget mass immigration whether illegal or legal causing massive strains on social services while we're at it.
