"California paid in a lot more [to the federal government] than it got back — $83 billion in total. So did Washington state and much of the Northeast. Most red states were in the reverse position, getting much more from DC than they paid in return."

like no one ever says oh, just grow up and show some creativity. be a responsible adult and make something neat from pure imagination.

i wish people who are great at admin (executive function) but not at being creative knew what it was like to have your financial stability and overall respectability hang on the thing you are worst at.
