$214 billion went to nonmetro residents and $897 billion went to metro residents.

Thank you for proving the point, which is that MORE money goes to metro areas. By your post it is 400% MORE money.

Furthermore, there also seem to be FEWER welfare recipients in nonmetro areas. Thank you for illustrating my point doubly.

Didn't see that truck headed for you did you?

You were absent the day they taught words like per capita weren't you? Read it again. There are fewer people per capita eating up welfare dollars in metro areas. Rural areas get MORE THAN THEIR SHARE of welfare moeny. 20:12 ratio if you look.
