North Carolina Should Compensate COVID Losses From State Cash
John Hood argues that North Carolina's $4 billion General Fund surplus and $1 billion rainy day reserve justify targeted compensation for service businesses and workers harmed by COVID restrictions rather than broad federal bailouts. He warns against keeping cash idle and urges cash payment to those affected while cautioning about tax or debt shifts. He notes unemployment and business distress amid ongoing restrictions and calls for state funded relief aligned with fiscal conservatism.
