Your citation is fascinating! So many interesting comparisons. (Also, there's a non-Scribd link here: https://files.taxfoundation.org/legacy/docs/ftsbs-timeseries-20071016-.pdf https://files.taxfoundation.org/legacy/docs/ftsbs-timeseries... ). I wish there was a graphical representation of the data (that wasn't too skewed by land area or population). It would also be nice if the absolute numbers were inflation-adjusted. To address the issue, though, your citation shows that Texas is right in the middle of per-capita federal taxes at $6,437 per person, ranked 25th. I think it's more illuminating to look at per capita numbers, otherwise it's just a comparison of population. If anything, Connecticut residents paying $11,522 in taxes per person would revile Texans for not paying their fair share.
