MUST READS FROM ALL OVER
RANKINGS
1. States That Sponge the Most Tax Dollars
As Democrats and Republicans battle over the budget, The Daily Beast
crunches the numbers to see which states take more from D.C. than they
send back—and which states get shortchanged.

SHUTDOWN SHOWDOWN
2. Dems to Oppose Budget Stopgap
Frantic negotiations in Washington still haven't yielded a budget deal.
A meeting at the White House provided a good discussion but didn't
result in an agreement, Speaker John Boehner said after the meeting
Tuesday. Meanwhile, House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-MD) says his side
will oppose a continuing resolution, a stopgap measure that would
prevent a shutdown while negotiations continued. Both Republicans and
Democrats have previously said they wouldn't accept another
stopgap—there have been several already—but GOP spending hawks have been
pushing a continuing resolution that would fund the government for a
week and the Pentagon through late September while cutting spending by
$12 billion.
