Easley Gives More Bribes

Apparently not satisfied with his recent bribes and cash giveaways to corporations, Governor Easley has proposed giving away even more cash that people work and earn to other companies who do absolutely nothing except perhaps give donations to Easley's campaign.

It appears Governor Easley has been bouyed by his recent success with the Tire company giveaway. Easley recently vetoed a $40 million cash present to Goodyear so that he could get the Democrat-led NC Legislature to meet and give away $60 million to Goodyear AND other tire companies. Seeing how easy it was to get the Legislature to give away that much taxpayer cash, he's going for even more this time.

His proposal, intentionally misleadingly named "The American Productivity and Competitiveness Act of North Carolina," would give "substantial" cash to companies that Easley personally likes (or, apparently, have donated large amounts to Easley or Democrats). And since $40 to $60 million was NOT "substantial," you can look for hundreds of millions in cash giveaways for companies if Easley passes this "Act."

A more accurate title for the act might be "The Take More Cash From Working People To Give To State-Favored Companies Act." ANY time the government gives any cash or tax benefit to ANY company, they are simply taking cash that people have earned and are giving it to a company. Remember: government has NO money other than what they take away from people who actually worked to earn it.

Once again, Democrats in North Carolina prove without a doubt -- they are NOT the party of working people, but instead are the party of big money, big giveaways (not to the poor), and big business. They do not care about the working man, only about their coporate friends.
