I know I'm contradicting my previous point, but a federal program would inhibit tax-paying citizens and corporations from moving to the most convenient nearby location to do the same business but for cheap. One example to look at would be the cities of Portland, Oregon, and Vancouver, Washington. A lot of people choose to live in Vancouver because Washington has no income tax and spend their time and money in Portland, which has no sales tax. So one could argue that the insufficient resources of a state are a function of the expected tax base exodus if it is cheaper to move and keep doing business than to stay and pay.
