create an equitable system of federal spending, where each state is responsible for its portion of the federal deficit

Created by J.S. on November 14, 2012

As our national debt continues to expand, no steps are being taken by our senators, representatives, or president to allocate the debt increases to the "takers" in our country.

Our worst offenders are as follows, with 20 year defecits (to 2009) shown in billions;

Puerto Rico -291
New Mexico -261
Mississippi -254
West Virginia -244
Montana -184
Alabama -174
North Dakota -156
Maine -151
Maryland (+ DC) -149
Alaska -149
Virginia -145
Hawaii -134
Kentucky -133
South Carolina -121
South Dakota -118

Since 2009, this issue has become significantly worse, and the entire country is held hostage by irresponsible spending by the federal government and by these states
