Here is some information on the total tax burden by state. JeffK is on the mark..

There is a strange number out there that has NH being the number 2 donor state. (defined as federal income tax dollars that are returned to the state in federal spending)

me thinks we need to get our congresspeople and Senators to pay a little more attention this.
maybe the Feds could fund a huge study on the effect of speed limits on Winni!
They could hire all us experts from the forum..
It would take years to complete and we would have that extra money to pay our property taxes
Now before anyone goes postal on me here.. I clearly state the previous comments were meant as a joke.. and no animals were harmed in the production of this joke!
