Taxpayer Website Award

Oh, joy. Big news. Huge news. An award of merit for website design has been won by North Carolina’s Eastern Region (NCER). Ready for the taxpayer part? Let's take a peek at who paid for this site that won this "prestigious award:"

Southern Economic Development Council's (SEDC)
Market Force, Inc.
Greenfield, an economic development consulting firm
NC Department of Travel, Tourism and Sports

And yes, every single one of those groups was paid for 100% with taxpayer cash. Every dollar was earned by someone who worked, taken by government, and given away to earn this award.

So, what is NCER and SEDC? NCER is "one of the seven regions created by the NC General Assembly to promote economic development in their respective regions." SEDC is "the largest regional economic development association in North America." Again, completely and totally bought and paid for by working people.

Tell me again how government doesn't have enough money and is efficient and has any remote interest in anything related to any sort of freedom. Go ahead, try and convince me.
