data are suspect[edit]

The data in this table is suspect. I combined the data from this table and the table of state populations to determine budgeted dollars per person in the state and found a very wide variation. I then took Washington and West Virginia to compare. This table shows West Virginia's budget at about $4 billion. In fact, the bill signed by the West Virginia governor (on the National Association of State Budget Officers - http:www.nasbo.org) is about $22 billion. $4 billion was for the General Fund only. This table would appear to need verification and re-work.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Shepherd66 (talk • contribs) — Preceding undated comment added 14:38, 17 October 2014‎

– I agree. The table should ideally include a column listing the population of each state to validate the per capita numbers. Monkeshine (talk) 18:33, 23 June 2019 (UTC)monkeshine[reply]

Here is some better data from the census. I think there should be a column for revenue and total debt. I'll make a dope graph of it then.--Wikideas1 (talk) 06:43, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Completely unreliable data. It should all be removed. Look at the link to Oregon data. The table on this Wikipedia page shows 2021-2023, 175 billion budget. The linked document shows 2017-2019, 75 billion, AND IT IS A BIENNIAL BUDGET! So annual it is 37.5 billion. Wrong year, wildly overstated per capital budget. Why is this table still here? Dollymadisonking (talk) 22:42, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- I agree. The table is very misleading because of the lack of population info and the lack of breaking out into yearly budgets. Even some states with multiple years in a budget (KY) have only one year listed in the FY column, so you can't even rely on that to track which states are overindexed. Can I delete the table or can someone fix it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aptpupil79 (talk • contribs) 06:08, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
