Federal spending was much greater in the North for a variety of things - especially corporate subsidies and infrastructure projects. Meanwhile about 75% of federal revenues were paid by Southerners who were the primary exporters and importers.

Not true and not true. What subsidies? What infrastructure projects?

Very true and very true. What subsidies? Read Georgia’s declaration of causes and there’s a whole list of them though there were plenty of others. What infrastructure projects? Everything from dredging for harbors to canals to railroads.
