French and Greek elections

On the other side of the pond, I doubt Texas and other 'responsible' states will take kindly to bailing out California, Illinois, and New York when their day of reckoning comes.

Most of your "responsible" states are net recipients of federal tax dollars, and those dollars came from states that, under the federal taxation system, pay much more tax to the federal government than receive in return.

Your so called "repsonsible" states have been recipients of hands out from Califnornia, Illinois and New York through the Federal taxation system for decades, and biting the hands that feed them for decades.
