KTC> Blue States have been subsidizing Red States for decades.


KTC,
Wasn't iut new york city that once tried to create the
worlds most generous welfare benefits . . . and
went bankrupt - - necessitating a MASSIVE bailout by
the federal government (Read that taxpayers of the
rest of the country)?


Hmmmmm . . this is interesting.

But this is closer :
http://cloward-piven.com/

These methods proved effective. "The flooding succeeded beyond Wiley's wildest dreams," writes Sol Stern in the Manhattan Institute's City Journal. "From 1965 to 1974, the number of single-parent households on welfare soared from 4.3 million to 10.8 million, despite mostly flush economic times. By the early 1970s, one person was on the welfare rolls in New York City for every two working in the city's private economy."

As a direct result of its reckless welfare spending, New York City - the financial capital of the world - was forced to declare bankruptcy in 1975. The entire state of New York nearly went down with it. Leftist agitators swooned in triumph. The Cloward-Piven strategy had proved its effectiveness.


(Nasty stuff . . this cloward priven obama schtick.)
