Well, the people who were paying 75% of the cost of Running the Federal government had the Sh*t beaten out of them by the other 75% of the Union that wasn't previously paying that tax bill.
Of course they had to pay their own tax bill after that, and we got this huge gargantuan Federal government as a result of empowering Washington DC.
If you are referring to the South prior to the Civil War, can this be substantiated?
A quick check found numerous articles that suggested the South did not pay 75% of the cost of running the Federal government, including the following articles:
"How much of federal tax revenue came from the South before the Civil War?"
"What portion of tariffs was paid by Southern states before American Civil War?"
"#FlagMyths: 'The Civil War Was Fought Over... Tariffs'"
"Five myths about why the South seceded"
