Yes, California has long been a "donor state", ie one that pays substantially more federal tax revenue than gets spent there. This shouldn't be too surprising as it's much richer than average and the tax system is approximately progressive.

Removing California's corruption, ineptitude, and fraud would eliminate any problems I have with my tax dollars being sent that way.

Well that's my point. "sent that way" is not entirely fair. Your state is spending California tax dollars, or so, not the other way around.
