State Finances: Federal Taxes Collected vs. Federal Funding by State
According to this, Minnesota ranks #50, meaning we get about $0.50 back in federal funding for every dollar in taxes we pay (using 2007-2009 figures).
This does not make me want to take former Senators Dayton and Coleman out for dinner in downtown Duluth.
It also brings this question to my mind: how much influence do governors have over federal funding? Are governors involved in the discussion of federal funding in any concrete way?
Andrew Sullivan’s blog features a contest called “The View From Your Window” where people submit views, as it were, from their windows, and people have to guess where in the world it is. This week features a view familiar to Duluthians. He quotes my entry but I didn’t win.

Lets keep the ‘grilled-fido’ comments to a minimum, Thanks in advance.
Call for music!

We’re doing another Homegrown Music Video Festival this year. Filmmakers draw a song at random from a beautiful top hat, then make a music video from said song.
Here is the PDD link to last year.
Would you be willing to donate a song or two to the cause?
Would you like to make a music video for a free pass to Homegrown?
