WILSON: Where is the money that Georgia sends to DC? Still in Washington

By George Wilson | Your money stays in Washington because of reactionary conservative Republican state government policy. Let me explain. Georgia ranked 39th in per-person receipts from the federal government in fiscal year 2013, the most recent calculated by State Policy Reports, a publication of the Washington-based Federal Funds Information for States. The state’s lowest ranking, 46th, in terms of federal grants per person, is the money doled out for projects like highways, sewer projects, education and mostly Medicaid.
