    Incorrect! California gives more to the treasury than they receive. They just got more of their cash back that has being going to fund the red shithole states.

    Drop in the bucket.

    From the original link. Seems like Mississippi is getting well more than its fair share:

    The funding is the first piece of a broader $600 million earmarked for Jackson’s water crisis that Congress approved in December as part of the $1.7 trillion omnibus spending bill to fund the government through most of this year.

    How did basic infrastructure become so politicized? We, as a whole, need to find some common ground again.

    It becomes political when some people blame one party or whites (because they hate black people) for the failures of a city over a multi decade long period of time.
