That is the hypothetical reason, but in practice, what are the services that low-tax states consume disproportionately? In WA state I can't think of any, other than federal programs that use the land (like nuclear containment)

Not just simple fraud, but a major hurdle is how to regulate CO2 necessary for producing consumer energy without creating a regressive tax structure. Once CO2 is converted to electricity on the grid, it's fungible and impossible to sor

I do think it's important to teach these types of critical analysis skills in grade school, however, this bill is quite limited in scope: > On or before July 1, 2019, the department shall make available to school districts on its In
