Jasmine Crockett's 'Radical or Restorative' Game on Federal Funding

Donor States vs. Recipient States

• 💰 Los Angeles contributes nearly $20 billion in taxes, more than all but four states, suggesting it should have an outsized interest in federal spending.
• 💡 Blue states are described as consistently funding red states that contribute less but take more federal money.
• ⚠️ California, a donor state, contributes more than it receives, while states like Louisiana are broke and rely on federal funds, highlighting a disparity in financial contributions.

'Radical or Restorative' Game

• 🎯 Rep. Jasmine Crockett plays a game called "Radical or Restorative" with Luis C. de Baca, questioning the nature of various programs.
