South Dakota and similar states appear to receive more from Washington than they send, but critics say tax payments are credited to headquarters in New York or Chicago, not to the states where business occurs. The debate touches on Roosevelt policies, bank asset takeovers, and a jab at Einstein before mocking a cartoon.
