So, care to provide any more erroneous examples?
I didn't provide any in the first place. My point isn't about the specific differences, but merely to observe that there *are* differences in terms of per-capita funding between say farm subsidies going to farming communities and housing subsidies going to urban areas. Or both of those and education subsidies in either location, or welfare payouts, or any of a thousand different types of funding which wont correlate precisely among population lines between two different areas.
My example of farm subsidies wasn't erroneous. Someone in a previous thread just went off on some bizarre tangent while completely missing the point and I didn't feel like following the silliness. Surely, no one's actually arguing that somehow we can assume that based solely on how a state's population voted for president determines the entirety of both how taxes affect that population *and* how spending is doled out?
Cause that would be pretty stupid, wouldn't it?
