Great post Mr Carter! But I think this sentence in your article says it all:

Left-wingers hate deregulation and tax breaks because it limits the control they can exert over people. Yet, at the same time, they love the idea of “community” and “local”.

It's going to be a long hard slog to pry their hands off the throats of the American people but it's a journey well worth making! Is there a roll for VC's like you?

North Carolina is reducing its corporate tax from 2.5% to zero by 2030. This is all due to the Republicans in the State legislature having a plan ten years ago to lower personal and corporate taxes and then enacting the plan.

In my county of 120,000 people in North Carolina, where the largest town has 15,000 people, there are many non profits which are funded with millions of dollars and seemingly all duplicate the services they each provide. There’s something seriously wrong with the non profit charities here if they’re all very well funded, are all addressing the same issues, yet no issues are ever solved. They just keep asking for more money. These charities should have to provide metrics on their success. If they can’t, they should be shut down.
