No offense, but you are an absolute idiot.
The Constitution is FEDERAL, not state.
The federal government doesnt provide trash service, and it certainly doesnt have any power to provide police or fire service. Those are state matters.
America’s lowest-earning one-fifth of households receives roughly $8.21 in government spending for each dollar of taxes paid. Households with middle-incomes receive $1.30 per tax dollar, and America’s highest-earning households receive $0.41 per tax dollar;
Government spending targeted at the lowest-earning 60 percent of U.S. households is larger than what they paid in taxes in 2004. Overall between $1.03 trillion and $1.53 trillion was redistributed downward from the two highest income quintiles to the three lowest income quintiles through government taxes and spending;
As nearly everyone knows, some taxes fall heavily on upper-income Americans while others fall heavily on low-income Americans. For example, the federal income tax is heavily skewed toward those with the highest incomes, because it has six tax rates that rise from 10 percent to 35 percent as income rises. In contrast, cigarette taxes fall mostly on the lowest-earning Americans, because those with low incomes are more likely to smoke than those with high incomes.However, when all taxes are considered together, America’s highest-earning income groups clearly pay the largest amounts of taxes to finance government spending programs.
