First of all, chill out. You don't know me, or my politics. Stop painting people with a brush and trying to pin thoughts and beliefs on them that they don't hold. I've admitted (very quickly) that I'm no expert and that I'm interested in learning from what you have to say and having a discussion.
My original post:

And Ontario gets back some of what it contributes, you're right. You fail to mention that Alberta, BC and Sask get NOTHING back.
I feel like you've taken the "nothing" part totally out of context here. Obviously I've never thought that Alberta, BC and Sask get ZERO federal dollars. I feel like that's just common sense seeing how we where talking about something specific but they're my words so I'll take responsibility for not being clear enough.
And with the exception of me getting a little confused in my second post you've basically backed up my original statement. Yes Ontario get's some of their money back (in the form of equalization payments), Alberta, BC and Sask get none (in the form of equalization).
So what's the problem here?
