States at the top of this list take 2 dollars for every dollar they send to the feds.

The Arizona legislature privatized their Capitol building, sold it! They now rent the building from the new owners like elected trailer trash! More…
It’s a bit amazing that Mass is so high on the list. Their population is a fraction of CA and less than Virginia’s.

I’m not sure it’s that easy, on a couple of fronts. First, much of this is is basically sorted by population: California and New York on one end, Wyoming and North Dakota on the other.

For much of this period, for instance, California and Massachusetts both had Republican governors.
