I want to know why I pay so much, and why so much funding goes to local democrat strongholds that don't even have functional street lights at most intersections??? (Gary, Indiana comes to mind!)

It may make people uncomfortable, but the dependency of Red States on Blue States economically is one of the forces that shapes America
