States Decision?

11. The percent of funding from the Federal government for schools, police and fire is very low

The Federal government doesn't say that since Mississippi doesn't spend enough on schools, here is a check to make up the difference. The Federal funding for schools is based on poverty levels of the students irrespective of what state they live in.

I must say I'm surprised that there would be opposition here to schools serving poor kids getting Federal funds. Frankly, it sounds a lot like rich RW that don't want their tax dollars going to help "those people"

Your position on Medicaid in Red states doesn't make any sense. After arguing that some states unfairly take more in Federal dollars than their residents contribute, you then complain that Red states aren't taking even more Federal money to expand Medicaid. Isn't that what you say you are against?
