Our Opinion on the North Carolina Progress Board Report
The state should pursue goals like poverty reduction and cleaner waters without raising taxes. Government should set priorities, fund essential infrastructure, and encourage private sector involvement. Reprioritizing spending could reduce the tax burden and boost household finances, while questioning the board’s $750,000 spending with public and foundation funds.
