          Our elected officials are working hard to do what we elected them to do.  They are dealing with OVER 1700 bills between the House and Senate. No, Republicans did NOT present them all. The Democrats presented TONS of silly bills in a futile attempt to overwhelm our Republican legislators, so they…

        Kudos to NC for having the courage to take on government spending and work disincentives. Yeah.

          Where I come from, it isn't moral to go in debt and that's what the states have been doing. They have also failed to adopt rational rules which encourage people to work rather than reward them for not working. Remind me to tell you about "Insured Capitalism" sometime.
