If one does research there are many Republicans states that spend just as much per-capita as states like New York and California.
Republicans in general aren't libertarians. I think it is interesting how many Democrats think libertarians are Republicans, that is not the case.
I don't consider Donald Trump exactly a libertarian.
I personally hope that Biden sends the price of oil skyrocketing because North Dakota, Wyoming, Alaska get lots and lots of tax money.
Just because one is a Republican, doesn't mean they object the government spending.
North Dakota can compete with the best of them when it comes to spending. Even though North Dakota spends $4,000 more per-capita on government spending. Many in North Dakota were blasted the Governor Burgum's budget.
A chief financial officer for the state said "“We’re down to the meat and bones of the budget." in North Dakota.
California: 227 Billion
