The United Federal Administrative Units of America?

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

56% : According to the National Association of State Budget Officers, "state general fund spending is projected to grow 5.0 percent in fiscal 2022 compared to fiscal 2021 levels, with 39 states proposing spending increases according to governors' budgets."
54% : But whereas federal aid to the states in 1940 was only $13 billion in today's dollars and "only" $239 billion in 2000, it's projected to be over $1 trillion for 2021 and to continue rising as the Biden administration and congressional Democrats aim to have the federal government finance yet a greater share of overall government spending.
51% : With the federal government accounting for roughly a third of total state spending prior to the pandemic, it's fair to wonder what the future holds for the relationship between the federal government and the states.
