I remember seeing this before, but it's interesting for a few reasons. First if you remember our wondering about how the south (or rural areas in general) seemed to tax much less, (and my reasoning being that farms are able to provide are large amount of taxes while only requiring a small amount of government services). This seems to directly oppose that, still one cannot deny that there were less taxes in the south. First I'd like to know just how they determine which state to say got federally spent dollars. Does FL get credit for all the money spent by NASA at Cape Carnaval? Secondly I'd like to know what the bulk of the money the south is getting goes towards. Farm subsidaries? Money being spent on military bases and other federal government opperated organizations since they have so much free land? Third it occures to me that the more rural states probably pay and receive a lot less in absolute terms (as in less actual dollars), since they have less people. There could be a base cost of providing for a state which becomes more signifigant as the population decreases (and with it the per person cost). Lastly it's worth noting that NJ gives the most and receives the least.

Well conveintly there's a lot more interesting data on the subject is available.

For a while now it's been bothering me (and I'm sure you too) that while I consider myself familiar with the US Constitution, I have never read the NJ Constitution. I was surprised to learn we've had 3 constitutions, the current one being adopted in 1947. Here's a fun fact about our first and second ones:
"Among other provisions, [the first constitution] granted unmarried women and blacks who met property requirements the right to vote."
"The succeeding constitution, adopted on June 29, 1844, restricted suffrage to white males."

Interestingly enough Hangout NJ "the state's Web site for kids!" interprets this as:
"In the mid-1800s New Jersey citizens wanted a more democratic state government."

A lot of god stuff:
"We, the people of the State of New Jersey, grateful to Almighty God for the civil and religious liberty which He hath so long permitted us to enjoy, and looking to Him for a blessing upon our endeavors to secure and transmit the same unimpaired to succeeding generations, do ordain and establish this Constitution."

"No person shall be deprived of the inestimable privilege of worshipping Almighty God in a manner agreeable to the dictates of his own conscience;"

Also around Article IV Section VII I started to remember why I never bothered with state constitutions:
"It shall be lawful for bona fide veterans, charitable, educational, religious or fraternal organizations, civic and service clubs, senior citizen associations or clubs, volunteer fire companies and first-aid or rescue squads to conduct, under such restrictions and control as shall from time to time be prescribed by the Legislature by law, games of chance of, and restricted to, the selling of rights to participate, the awarding of prizes, in the specific kind of game of chance sometimes known as bingo or lotto, played with cards bearing numbers or other designations, 5 or more in one line, the holder covering numbers as objects, similarly numbered, are drawn from a receptacle and the game being won by the person who first covers a previously designated arrangement of numbers on such a card, when the entire net proceeds of such games of chance are to be devoted to educational, charitable, patriotic, religious or public-spirited uses, and in the case of senior citizen associations or clubs to the support of such organizations, in any municipality, in which a majority of the qualified voters, voting thereon, at a general or special election as the submission thereof shall be prescribed by the Legislature by law, shall authorize the conduct of such games of chance therein;"

Yes this is a paragraph that allows old people to play Bingo.

A thought just accurred to me, the stimulus check was $600 per person. A pizza costs about $10, $600/$10 = 60, 52 weeks in the year = free weekly pizzas and a massive pizza party to start it. Politicians are fools.

The McCain campaign reported paying $13,200 in September to celebrity makeup artist Amy Strozzi, who works on the reality show "So You Think You Can Dance." She was paid $22,800 for the first two weeks of October, nearly double what the campaign paid McCain's foreign policy adviser, Randy Scheunemann, according to a filing report.
