“The Pew Center on the States has a great new illustration of how dependent states have become on federal dollars since the recession.

And $1 out of every $3 is just the national average: In Arizona, 46.9 percent of state revenue came from federal grants; in Louisiana, 48 percent; and in Mississippi, a whopping 49.6 percent.”
