I find this very interesting yet disheartening at the same time:
Federal Taxes paid/received for each State
Federal Spending Received Per Dollar of Taxes Paid by State, 2005 | Tax Foundation
The info is old no doubt, but I find it very troubling that the states generally ruled by the (correct) mindset that there should be less federal gov't bloat and funding, are the ones who are snagging the bigger shares of the pie. The only thing I wonder is this is probably monies as a whole, and how much of it is for entitlements and how much for military, law enforcement etc.
