数据是有的，愿不愿承认是另一回事

Yes, on average, red states receive more federal funding than they contribute in taxes. Data from sources like the Rockefeller Institute of Government and MoneyGeek shows that many Republican-leaning states have a positive balance of payments, meaning they get back more in federal spending than they send in taxes. For example, in 2022, states like New Mexico ($3.69 per dollar paid), Kentucky ($3.35), and West Virginia ($2.72) had high returns on taxes paid, with seven of the ten most federally dependent states being red states. This is often due to factors like lower per capita income, higher poverty rates, and federal programs like Medicaid and Social Security that disproportionately benefit these states. Meanwhile, blue states like New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts typically send more in taxes than they receive, with negative balance of payments (e.g., New York paid $89 billion more than it received in 2023).
