While true, youāre basically toeing the right-wing line that socialism is bad and we should all look out for ourselves. I donāt mind FL getting more emergency assistance than I do being way inland. I only mind that I seem to be paying more into it than Bezos or Musk do.
They canāt have it both ways imo. If theyāre reaping the benefits of it, then they should acknowledge itās good and should be in place. Thatās blatantly not the case though.
I personally would prefer if we continue to support these people since plenty of the people living in those states are not voting against their own self-interest. Imo, caring people living in the deep red or deep blue states should move to more purple districts in purple states to help move the country as a whole to be more caring politically.
I think blue states should also move to implement more safety nets on their own instead of waiting for a blue supermajority federally. If people see how their state and local government can work for them, theyād be more likely to want those policies in their own states. States by that same token should be willing to go into debt to fund long running infrastructure and policies that will be value adds to the state and residents living there.

Socialism isnāt the same thing as collectivism or the government doing stuff.
I donāt think thatās what they are implying just stating that is how itās being presented to a certain electoral demographic.
