Two issues here:
1) I thought the GOP was in favor of strong local governance and believed money is more efficiently allocated at the state level. This action flies in the face of that.
2) _Generally_ the states who are penalized by this change in tax policy already pay more in federal taxes than they receive in benefits.[1]
