maryjimboehm::::If there is no money where did the raises money come from? Maybe we do need a promise tracker.

Ask purdue where she found that extra money to fund her free babysitting services came from at just about the same time medicaid was cut. Ask her where all her money came from to do the thing SHE wanted to do while she was in office. Or is that different because she is a democrat and is using that as an excuse for you all?

hppyhourhero: pretty much the same reaction shown as Obama allows significant pay increases for the very top levels of government ((cabinet level positions, congress,etc.) but no pay increase for the average government worker..Kinda hypocritical for Obama supporters to scream about McCrory and his giving his top people a pay raise isn't it???

"partner with main street"???!! What a joke. This guy's only motivation is to destroy government in the short time he's in office, to "drown government in a bathtub" as their leader Grover Norquist has demanded. The best way to do that: steal from the poor and give to the rich. Create a society of peasants. Destroy the middle class. Their very own Bob Rucho admitted to the press that their plan will steal from the poor.

" For the first time in the history of this country we have been forced to buy a product from a private enterprise or face prison and fines. Keep blaming your employer." Sounds like an argument for a national health system! Bravo!

MY employer pays for my health insurance. It's the employers who don't that make the deficit go up.

"The republican agenda is VERY clear. It's called voter suppression. The first things they are working on are rezoning and voter id."

The first thing was 8% raises for his "people". Im sure they deserved more of our money. LOL

"You may still have to wait for your employer to pay you a living wage, however." goldenosprey

What is a living wage? I want a dollar amount.

And no, 0 doesn't care whether you want to spend your money on health insurance. For the first time in the history of this country we have been forced to buy a product from a private enterprise or face prison and fines. Keep blaming your employer.

"On Saturday night, the Foundation for North Carolina Inc., a nonprofit formed to promote McCrory positions, was hosting an invitation-only fundraiser dinner with the governor and first lady at Carolina Country Club."

Yes he is definitely working for Main Street. LOL are people this easily fooled?

Hill55, the UE funds fiasco was figured out AFTER a half billion horses left the barn. But it "would be too hard to get it back." and that's a direct quote from Bev. You can thank her if there's no money, for choosing political correctness over competence.

Remember said PC appointee having to be subpoena'd to explain her failings, then being allowed to "step down"? How did she not steal from the taxpayers, once with her disbursements and again with her collections?

A proud day for Dems and a splendid reminder that "diversity" is more important than accountability.

CrumpsBr0, where in the inerrant constitution does it say thou shall have to produce whatever documentation the latest general assembly deems necessary to get a plastic card and pay a poll tax for such, no matter how far away the DMV is and, with the understanding if such gets lost or stolen you are S.O.L.??? You better hope "Barrycare" covers butthurt, because that is all I hear from the permanent victim class on the right, upset that employers may have to cover their employees rather than dumping them on the medicaid I help pay for.
