No different than any other time. Blue states would not survive without the federal government.
Red states wouldn't either and are actually more of leaches than most blue states

States dont pay money to the federal government
States only get money from the federal government
If a blue state makes horrible financial decisions where the state owes pensions and salaries far above what they can pay it has nothing to do with the federal government at all
Federal taxes are equal across the board

This is it what the numbers say. From the link I posted on the first page:
quote:
Against a national average of $1,935 in intergovernmental spending per American, red states receive just $1,879. Blue states get considerably more, at $2,124 per resident. Purple states see the least of their money returned to them per capita, at just $1,770.
States Population InterGov. InterGov. Per Capita
Total Red State 96,086,631 $180,551,551,000 $1,879
Total Purple State 77,676,459 $137,532,631,000 $1,771
Total Blue State 134,982,448 $286,776,111,000 $2,125
Grand Total 312,471,695
Blue states are getting more federal government money per person.
