To improve the quality of life for those who are already here they need to keep us off of these lists.

Most of Raleigh's significant growth happened under Tom Fetzer.

Unemployment is up significantly under Meeker.

Meeker wasted our money on a convention center that will never break even without taxpayer subsidies.

Meeker tried to take away our garbage disposals.

Meeker funded a private restaurant downtown with taxpayer funds.

Meeker built an unneeded amphitheater downtown when we already had Walnut Creek.

Meeker took away our pine straw.

Meeker and Allen significantly raised fees.

My water bill went from $40 per two months when Meeker took office to $40 per month currently.

Meeker wants to build the unneeded train to RTP that nobody wants.

Under Meeker trash fees were raised while pickup service was reduced from twice a week to weekly pickup.

Under Meeker Recycle fees were also raised as well.

Instead of raising taxes, Meeker raises fees. This allows him to say he hasn't raised our taxes.

Bu Bye Meeker. Don't let the door hit you on the way

I find this story laughable since unemployment is draining the area of its quality of life and the jobs are migrating overseas, so how did this story and rating come about again please??????

I find this story to be nothing short of amazing.

If you're a regular on the Golo pages, you know that for the past month we have been hearing about how North Carolina was running people out of the state because of excess taxation, and how businesses were being almost literally crushed with taxes and regulation.

So clearly this story cannot be correct, right?

The Forbes King can't even run his own empire so what should he have ANY credibility? Should just go out on his yacht and dwell on his kingdom that he inherited! Like gcmann said, overqualified and under paid, just what he likes.......hey nc republicans, how is that gas tax working out for 'ya?
