Hattip: James, at BlueNC.
Forbes has released its 2012 Top 25 Cities for Business and Careers, and four of the 25 are Democratic bastions in North Carolina, where -- you know -- crushing regulation, taxation, and the complete theft of personal liberty has rendered everything a vast wasteland that no true American patriot would want to occupy.
Our favorite of the four has to be Asheville.
Maybe we should give more tax breaks to the wealthy, starve our public schools more, ignore science, give taxpayer money to religious schools that teach the flat-earth theory, tell gays, black people and the poor to fuck off, damn healthcare, hang everyone from the highest tree--guilty or not, especially the brown people; pollute our air and water, sell our states assets: museums,parks, etc. to the highest bidder that promises a back-door under the table cash kickback; prevent women from receiving healthcare, purge the voting roles of all non-believers and screw local control--big government knows best.
ReplyDeleteYou think if we accomplish the above list NC may move up to first place a s a good state to do business in, in future?
Hey my friends, Rucho Apadaca, Stam, Berger, Tillis, Moore, Soucek, Jordan and a cast of many are working on the list...
Maybe we should call Virginia for more support...
Yes JW, liberals have done a great job and have many success stories about their "best places" to share...
ReplyDeleteSuccesses like Stockton Ca, Philadelphia, Detroit, and their prime example of liberal success, Boston Mass who, with BILLIONS of federal dollars is still surviving!
AH yes! And here are some more GREAT cities....
ReplyDeleteDetroit, with 33 percent of its residents below the poverty line; Buffalo, N.Y., 30 percent; Cincinnati, 28 percent; Cleveland, 27 percent; Miami, 27 percent; St. Louis, 27 percent; El Paso, Texas, 26 percent; Milwaukee, 26 percent; Philadelphia, 25 percent; and Newark, N.J., 24 percent.
Notice anything in common?
My my Anonymous! Sounds like Jeff Templeton is back at his keyboard!
ReplyDeleteGosh, can't you be happy for the NC cities who made the Forbes list without resorting to this totally irrelevant attack?
Anon10:13 and 26 proves the point, NC is doing great, why fuck it up?
ReplyDeleteAnd Boston, wasn't the Brain governor or should I say Bain governor a man named Mitt.
It appears, like his cousin George, Romney has the capacity, track record and will to destroy cities, states and lord help us all ...countries...
What;s the matter, Henery? Can't stand the truth?
ReplyDeletehenery, you are an idiot.
ReplyDeletewhat else needs to be said.
Actually anon, Boston doesn't have a governor. Boston is a city. It has a Mayor.
ReplyDeleteYou need to brush up on your civics a little before you attempt to post again.
Way to elevate the argument there, Anonymous. Get well soon!
ReplyDeleteAh, yes, El Paso, Texas....that bastion of liberal thinking and economic policy.
ReplyDeleteAnon 8:33 - My thoughts exactly. And last time I checked Miami had a Republican mayor and FL had a Republican governor. And Stockton is in one of the more conservative regions of California (San Francisco's doing just fine, thank you). The real culprit there was plummeting house prices.
ReplyDeleteBut it's so much easier to just rattle off a list of cities without considering context or reality.
Also, if anyone wants to knock Boston for taking govt. money, better watch your facts there too. Over the last 20 years MA has consistently paid more federal taxes in than it receives back in federal spending. NC, like most southern states, takes more federal $$ than we put in.
Why would anyone think Republicans were conservative? Look at their liberal Presidential candidate.
