    LuFin, I don't understand. It's almost like you're angry or sarcastic or something? I can loan you $13.46, since that was the amount on the check credit card sent to me by the Feds. That's all I got. $13.46. You can have it. Well. . . no. I need to buy beer. Sorry.

        Now you're starting to understand why I don't argue about this shit, anymore. It's the same reason I don't watch many if any sporting events. I used to be a sports and political junkie. Both of these things are 100% out of my control to do anything about. So, why even bother?

        I am much more calm now.

                  Ok that helps.

                  Just imagine that your money is going to several families whose parents are Federal Rmployees making $140K AGI out in Loudoun County that didn’t miss any income as they just worked from home and saved commuting costs and tolls and are going to get $1400 hundred more per person INCLUDING dependents?! And since they are Federal Employees, let’s pay them $1400 per week more for working from home because WHY THE FUCK NOT? Through September EVEN THOUGH THEIR FRIGGING KIDS WOULD BE OUT OF SCHOOL ANYWAY FROM JUNE-AUGUST AND IT’S NOT COSTING THEM ANYTHING SINCE THEY WERE HOME ANYWAY!!!

                  Good God this country has gone insane.

                    Hey Ax.
                    Your map has only 49 states.
                    No kidding! It's incorrect I think, but I'm not sure.

                    Could you look at it very carefully, and count the states so that we can all know what's wrong with the map?
                    I mean, you posted it, so frankly bud, it's kinda your responsibility.

                    You could start Left----> or, you could start Right <----
                    Doesn't matter, but starting on the Left would probably be easier for you.
                    Thanks, Ax!! That will explain a lot.

                      That chart is 7 years old.

                      Here's something a bit more current:

                      Here are the 10 states with the most federal funding per resident:

                      Virginia ($10,301)
                      Kentucky ($9,145)
                      New Mexico ($8,692)
                      West Virginia ($7,283)
                      Alaska ($7,048)
                      Mississippi ($6,880)
                      Alabama ($6,694)
                      Maryland ($6,035)
                      Maine ($5,572)
                      Hawaii ($5,270)

                      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
