(4,741 posts)42. I'm actually a fan of a "tax fairness" bill, I think Rs would jump on it.
Pass a bill that explicitly says a State cannot receive more in Federal aid than it pays in Federal taxes. Call it the "Maker-Taker Fairness Act" or the "Balanced Tax Distribution Act" or somesuch malarkey that panders to the Right's idea that the blue states, with their welfare queens and food-stamp scammers, are the "taker" states, I really suspect they'd jump on it like flies on shit.
