1) Return on Taxes Paid to the Federal Government;
2) Federal Funding as a Percentage of State Revenue; and
3) Number of Federal Employees Per Capita.



1) Return on Taxes Paid to the Federal Government - Gee, gosh, golly, maybe that's why most of the states are smaller in population? they paid less in Fed taxes?

2) Federal Funding as a Percentage of State Revenue - Gee, gosh, golly, maybe because red states chose not to crush their citizenry with taxes, maybe?

3) Number of Federal Employees Per Capita - WTF kinda metric is that? Numbers for small states are easily tilted for Coast Guard, border guards, deseg cases, voting rights monitoring, atomic energy, This is BS
