Which is the correct opinion. I suggest the first. What you suggest or post is totally irrelevant without facts and links to the proof. HTH

My State receives 2/3 of its revenues from the Federal Government and discretionary funds with 1/3 coming from General Revenue. State taxes for schools, social services and correction taxes would have to go up tremendously to support these programs. How would your State be impacted? Do all liberals think that money is magically generated from thin air? Guess where the federal government got the money to give to your state.....it's from one of two places. One is from the people who live in the individual states. or the other is that they created debt, which is magical money from thin air that has to be paid back by the people in the individual states. I know this will be difficult to understand, but the federal government does not create wealth. We do...you and me. Well me at least, and other people who actually participate in the process of getting goods or services out to the market. The money that the federal government gives to you came from your own pocket. Why is that so hard to understand?
