More communist, California or Texas?? [View all]

If California GIVES $80 billion dollars (and a whole lot of food) more to the people of the country than it gets back, does that prove we're communists because we expect to share our "wealth" to HELP others?

Or if Texas, for example, TAKES $50 billion dollars (and a whole lot of food) more from the people of the country than it gives, are they communists because they expect the "wealth" to be shared?

California and other blue states are literally coming to the RESCUE of red states. Money AND food, for crying out loud. Talk about, literally, biting the hands that feed you. I cannot imagine MAGA rescuing California. So un-American.
