Which brings us full circle to the fact that it should not be a Federal issue at all, and that Congress should not be collecting tax from Nebraska or Alaska to give funding to Florida. But again, we have moved so far away from original intent, that to claim that thought sounds "radical". I am saying the 10th Amendment strictly adhered to would reduce the size of the Federal Bureaucracy dramatically. But instead, we states give up more of our soveriegnty in order to partake of the tax revenue of others.
