Moochers

Although I generally feel the author to be full of a stinky substance, he pretty much hit the nail on the head with Eastern Washington: Feeding from — and biting — government’s hand.*  As the chart below shows the counties of Eastern Washington, with the exception of Kittitas County, and most counties of Southwestern Washington, are basically a bunch of moochers.
I've often said that if there was a statewide initiative that would require tax money collected to be only spent in the county it was collected, the eastern side of the state would overwhelmingly vote for it.  As their infrastructure decayed, the result would be a third world country, and they would deserve it.

*(Of course, Democrats suck as well, but that is besides the point here.)
