There is forever the point made, by the ethically challenged, It’s all legal. Lawyers and politicians, politicians and lawyers agree everywhere. No wonder the politicians want to own the market on job creation. Great source of income.

Wasn’t she one of the dims that recently called for less democracy? Something about suspending elections for a while so that elected officials will have some breathing room. If so, it figures.

Ah, liberals. They decry greed and eschew profits.

Unless it's theirs.

Is NC a right-to-work state or will the Obama administration try to close down this plant like they are doing to Boeing in SC?

Perdue's campaign has received more than $52,000 from five men with an ownership stake in the Brunswick County industrial park proposed for the new facility.

"You scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours."

Is it any wonder how politicians start out as paupers and retire as multimillionaires? The word "ethics" never seems to come to mind.

Cronyism and corruption is THE SYSTEM in America today, the Democrat principal of governance is NOTHING but cronyism and using power to determine society’s winners. They operate in no other way.

Womble Carlyle is a powerhouse law firm - with Jim Hunt & Burley Mitchell leading the lobbying charge, Perdue's son is not really consequential. I would expect most of the lobbying types at the firm are connected Democrats, since Democrats have been running state govt for so long.

Golden LEAF, like so many unaccountable slush funds, is the biggest magnet for corruption in this story. The John Locke Foundation, a prominent local think tank, has recommended liquidating it.

They figure if Obastard can do it, they can, too.

Rats are not opposed to capitalism, just free market capitalism that doesn’t deposit any green into their accounts simply for existing.

And Eric “the bigot” Holder is too busy suing the states for enforcing the feds abandoned responsibility for immigration to prosecute corruption in his own house (ATF, FBI, DEA, etc) gunrunner, DOE Solyondra, or other corruption in government.

I wonder if Gov. Perdue is related to the late Frank Perdue of Chicken foods fame?

If so, couldn’t we say that her “chickens have come home to roost”, and to crap all over her and her corrupt cronies?

In fact, after this is all over, I predict that “her goose will be cooked”.

Bon appetit, Bev. Prison food is good for you.

You know, Justice Bob Orr ran for governor largely on the issue of ending these incentives, and the John Locke Foundation pounds the table on this issue daily. But no one was interested.

But now everyone is shocked, SHOCKED that this sort of thing might lead to public corruption.

At least some of the Republican leadership in the state house are finally getting serious about this issue. Targeted business “incentives” are bad policy, encourage corruption, and probably violate the Exclusive Emoluments Clause of the N.C. Constitution.
