not to that one state. they can deal with out it. I think you might have missed that it was just the one state not all of sports. And even then, maybe they should get better support from the people that want to see it, and just refuse that money and when it comes to the olympics they could just not work for the USA and see how that effects things. Thats how that money started to flow into those sports to start.
Well then if they do, I would think that Maine would have the recourse to refuse to send money to the fed, I wonder how much that is, seeing all those companies that start themselves in Maine for tax reasons. I would think it would lead to some massive court cases, but in the mean time, the state could just use the money they collect for fed as a bandaid, I hope its not like the most of blue states that give well more then they get.
Maine doesnt send money to the Feds. When you pay federal taxes, you pay them straight to the federal government and not the state.
It’s a myth blue states give more than they receive.
While its nice to never have to back up your claims, but Maine in 2020 paid in 8,097,747,000 and your claim that they would lose out on 6.1 billion means they are paying in about 2 billion more. And I am sure there could still be a stink somehow put in the mix, if they do not benefit from the fed then why make their citizens pay into it.
They pay because they are supposed too, if the state challenges that as there is supposed to be a benefit to being part of the union they could tell the payment processors its ok not to pay that money from our state until this is settled, you know there are numbers these biz’s have to give to say this is the amount from corp/person X Y Z, just put a 0 there. Now weather each corp or person would ask for that to happen is on them. But I know there are many facebook groups out there trying to be sovcits and tax dodging is a rich/corp game, I would see if there isnt a few that do.
No company would send the money to the state vs the federal government. That’s embezzlement.
It’s simple. States states have nothing to withhold from the federal government. If they tried to steal the money, that would be an insurrection and federal troops would remove their government.
That is why they are going through the courts. That’s their only option
Federal funding is billions of dollars.

5.1 billion. Trump is calling for all federal funds to be cut. Most likely the courts will stop that but it’s a risk.

States don’t pay federal taxes. The people in the state pay taxes to the federal government.
As such they cant refuse not to pay taxes to the federal government. They never have that money to hold.
They pay because they are supposed too, if the state challenges that as there is supposed to be a benefit to being part of the union they could tell the payment processors its ok not to pay that money from our state until this is settled, you know there are numbers these biz’s have to give to say this is the amount from corp/person X Y Z, just put a 0 there.
