"Pew has an excellent interactive that allows users to compare from one state to another how revenues are collected. This Census Bureau interactive allows users to see how their state spends taxes collected, and compare states. There are lots of possibilities for prompts for this in a personal finance or economics class, such as: 
  • In what ways does your state collect and reallocate tax dollars? 
  • How does that impact you? 
  • How does that impact everyday people? 
  • How does our state compare to other states?
