I commented on this proposal several weeks ago. At the time, all of the naysayers and anti-surf people lambasted Tom as though he was the cause of this rather than thinking clearly that Tom merely commented on a speech given by Governor McCrory several weeks ago.
Well now, it is on a fast track for implementation.
I wonder how many of the naysayers took the time to contact their state representatives in an effort to have the legislation softened?
Likely none as that would require effort.
But not to worry; advocacy groups are holding a news conference.
That won't stem the flow of legislation. Emails and letters and phone calls from concerned voters were needed; appears too few or too late.
Before anyone throws stones. Remember I am a messenger and my businesses will be paying higher taxes if it passes. I hope it does for the sake of North Carolina's business future.
Well,
