Green Eagle Joins With Marjorie Taylor Greene
Coming together to solve the nation's problems! We've all heard Marjorie's latest rants about dissolving the United States into Red and Blue States; i.e. Confederate secession 2023 style. Of course, we know perfectly well that this ignorant jackass will say anything to keep her rapidly aging* face in the news, so we shouldn't believe she means a thing she says, but assuming that she is serious, what should we be doing about this? Here is my suggestion:
Green Eagle is going to appeal to his Senators and Congress person (a character by the name of Adam Schiff, whom you may have heard of) to introduce legislation to require that, for say the next ten years, every State in the union receive exactly as much back from the Federal government as it pays in taxes. Then each State can spend its own residents' money in the manner they feel is appropriate. That seems fair, right? And this eminently sensible rule would soon show which States are economically viable and which are just welfare chiselers, sucking up the wealth of the really productive members of society.
I would like to point out that every single red State, with the current exception of (for some reason) Utah, is a net receiver of Federal tax money, as detailed today in a nice post at Daily Kos, which also shows how poorly red States do in rankings of poverty, crime, etc. I think it would be a really good idea to see just how these braying morons do without our money to support their mean-spirited, delusional notion of proper government. Then, let them get back to us in a few years and see whether we want to finalize the deal and let them sink or swim on their own. That's a reasonable plan, right?
*Not talking about physically aging, just that her schtick isn't really entertaining enough to keep the American populace interested very long.
