The US is at least somewhat willing to tax money made in California and spend the takings in Michigan. Greece or Italy gets the worst of both worlds: they can't devalue their currency to make their industries competitive with Germany, but they don't receive much share of German taxes either.

They actually got quite a chunk until the rampant mismanagement was uncovered, but indeed not as much as states in the USA.
