Don't You Love How Good Republicans Are at Managing Taxpayer Money?

An editorial in Saturday's Wilmington Star News nails what's very much afoot in North Carolina with the Republican Bunch running everything in Raleigh ... the give-away of taxpayer money to private corporations with little or no accountability to the same taxpayers who've coughed up the money. Here's the first paragraph:
It flies in the face of reason to suggest that the way to make government more accountable is to farm out public services – and dollars – to entities that have no direct accountability to the taxpayers. Yet that is the game plan of Gov. Pat McCrory and the Republican-led General Assembly as they consider privatizing Medicaid and economic development and seek once again to funnel the people’s money to private schools.
