So. We’re cutting taxes — AND SPENDING MORE
??????
The conservative revolution rolls on in The
City of Oaks.
The mainstream media has been regaling us all day with stories about the $20.6 BILLION budget
deal reached by the GOP majority in the North Carolina General Assembly. Yay!
We’ve got a budget!
But, wait. This
deal calls for 2.5 percent more spending than the last budget. SCREEEEEEEEEEEEECCCCHHHHH !!!
- SPENDING.
On the face of it — 2.5 percent doesn’t sound like a big deal.
In this case, we’re talking about a spending increase of HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS.
The mainstream media has been boo-hooing about
supposed hard-nosed conservative governance on Jones Street. But
we’re getting hundreds of millions in more spending than the last go-around!
We couldn’t find ANY WASTEFUL SPENDING TO ZERO OUT OF THE BUDGET? How about MOST of THIS PAGE? How about the ABC and / or the ALE? Golden Leaf? One North Carolina Fund?
I see John Hood, Skip Stam and Thom Tillis got what they wanted — $20 million in reparations for people who got sterilized by the state government from the 20s to the 70s. I had nothing to do with that. But it appears I’m going to have to help “pay” for it. This opens quite a Pandora’s Box — inviting everyone who feels they — or their ancestors — were slighted by the state government at any time in history to demand tax dollars. After this, how do you say no to reparations for slavery? CONTINUED:
