So it's okay for it to work in the exact opposite direction? It makes more sense to have a smaller number of people control decisions for a much larger number? Hell, states with higher GDPs already subsidize states with lower. It just got worse with the latest bullshit tax bill. And the more Republicans are in power, the more will be transferred to states with fewer people and resources. Now, if Republicans weren't so against that as a concept when it's applied in any circumstance in which a person of color might benefit, it wouldn't piss me off so much. But why should anyone in a state with all the people and the money be okay with it?
