Seems pretty ungrateful to eliminate a commission for the area that supported you most.

West Virginia is one state that gets back more money than it puts into the federal government. It has had more deaths than birth within a span of a few years and has almost no one moving in. Put all that together and it's hard to believe that a large chunk of Republican voters aren't getting assistance.

In Kentucky, the highest welfare rate counties are over 80% Republican. In contrast, counties that swung Democratic were mostly in the top ten of per capita income.
