"Tax Fairness Act of 2005." This Act would mandate that, within some reasonable margin of error, your state should get as much back from the feds as is sent to them in taxes. It's time to end this kind of geographic welfare!This idea is similar to the thread we had earlier, End Red State Welfare
I think calling it "Tax Fairness" is nice. Of course the idea of just cutting the federal government to the essentials and letting states pick up the slack is how we can do this.
