Thus, the state's residents pay relatively more in federal income taxes. Second, California is a relatively young state and thus has fewer residents receiving payments under Social Security and Medicare, an increasingly large slice of the federal budget pie. A third key factor in California's ongoing funding disparity is continued slippage in federal procurement spending, both total spending and the state's share thereof. Figures not adjusted for inflation. Totals figures in millions.
Totals exclude undistributed funds.
