On a per capita basis, red (Republican-leaning) states generally receive more in federal funding than they pay in federal taxes, while blue (Democratic-leaning) states generally pay more in federal taxes than they receive in federal funding.
Key Findings and Drivers:
• Red States (Beneficiary States): Many Republican-leaning states have lower average personal incomes and higher utilization of federal programs (such as Medicaid, Social Security, and income-support grants), resulting in a higher return on their federal tax dollars.
And yet they are subsidized by red states through SALT deductions on federal returns. |
