Not in Chapel Hill where property taxes are astronomical and you definitely SHOULD care about the schools because the kids getting short changed in education now will be the adults making decisions which will impact your community and your old age. That is a very selfish point of view.

This is basically erasing the election in which the people of NC voted against McCory and the Republicans for governor. They're doing all they can to make NC go from the most progressive state in the south to the next Mississippi.

I'm just curious why the interpretation of this legislation of this session has anything to do with business or comparison to Mississippi who has a Toyota manufacturing plant and in process of a new Continental Tire plant?

Yeah bud you keep making that baseless tired argument about events from 40+ years ago as a deflection to the utter ridiculousness that is happening NOW. Nobody is buying it.

As I have informed you before this has been going on for decades. It has continued on and off for decades. Nothing original or new about the recent NC legislative session. Except the whining.

What is your definition of astronomical?

I was paying 12 thousand in a state with the 2nd highest rated schools.

Now I am paying 2 thousand in one of the lowest rated states.

You get what you pay for!

Nobody is moving to NC for the schools.
