Introductions to Issues
- Agenda 2002: Economic development
Source: John Locke Foundation
Author: staff
NC, United States
- "While economic development has dominated the agendas of many governors, legislators, and local elected officials ... it is one of the most misunderstood activities that governments undertake. The political incentive to attract media attention through job announcements is frequently a substitute for a policy that maintains a balanced, efficient, and fair economic environment." (11/02)
- North Carolina CSE Story 2001
Source: Citizens for a Sound Economy
Author: Jonathan Hill
NC, United States
- "Today... we have over 25,000 members and supporters. As you know, NC CSE is committed to lower taxes, less government, and more economic freedom; we strive daily to recruit, educate, and mobilize a powerful grassroots army to fight for our goals and our liberty." (12/01)
- Privatization and competition
Source: John Locke Foundation
NC, United States
info@johnlocke.org
- "To improve programs such as public schools or social services, citizens must be willing to 'invest' more tax dollars in government. North Carolina ... is challenging this conventional wisdom. By introducing competition, markets, and volunteer participation into government programs and services, they are serving the public by both reducing cost and increasing quality."

- North Carolina sales tax hike kills jobs
Source: John Locke Foundation
Author: John Hood
NC, United States
lockefoundation@free-market.net
- "A plan to increase North Carolina's sales tax by up to one penny, with a corresponding reduction in tax reimbursements to local governments, could endanger the state's economic recovery and threaten tens of thousands of jobs." (07/11/01)
- Recipe for disaster: tax hikes would damage North Carolina's economic climate
Source: John Locke Foundation
Author: John Hood
NC, United States
lockefoundation@free-market.net
- "A new plan from N.C. House Democrats to increase state and local taxes by another $633 million in FY 01-02 would further damage North Carolina's already weakening economy. If passed, the tax hikes would push North Carolina's tax burden higher than the national average for the first time in history, and 12 percent higher than the regional average." (07/24/01)
- Tarheel State smokestacks bill could lead to costly regulations
Source: John Locke Foundation
Author: Roy Cordato
NC, United States
lockefoundation@free-market.net
- "'Clean smokestacks' legislation now moving through North Carolina's General Assembly would create a new global warming commission. But the scientific issues involved are complex and unsettled. If North Carolina were to try to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions on its own, it would have a trivial impact on global climate but destroy tens of thousands of jobs." (07/05/01)
- Sales tax hike not needed

Author: Erik Root & John Hood
NC, United States
lockefoundation@free-market.net
- North Carolina politicians want to let local governments raise their sales taxes to stem revenue shortages. But they didn't seem to be suffering when the economy was booming. (06/13/01)
- Triage for Medicaid: controlling surging cost key to North Carolina's fiscal health
Source: John Locke Foundation
Author: John Hood
NC, United States
lockefoundation@free-market.net
- "Among the major causes of this year's $800 million state budget deficit is a $108 million increase in projected Medicaid spending. The state should enact reforms in eligibility and benefits which could save taxpayers at least $251 million a year." (03/07/01)

In Adobe Acrobat. (09/00)
- A costly tax: state lottery is inefficent way to collect revenue
Source: JLF
Raleigh, NC, United States
lockefoundation@free-market.net
- Politicians in North Carolina want to start a state lottery, but the "cost per dollar collected of this lottery tax would be 20 to 50 times greater than the cost of raising rates for other state taxes that already exist. The best course for the state is not to raise taxes at all but to reduce the size of government." (02/27/01)
- A guide to tax reform: current effort lacks principles and sound data
Source: JLF
Raleigh, NC, United States
lockefoundation@free-market.net
- "The need for fundamental tax reform in North Carolina has never been more obvious. Unfortunately, Gov. Mike Easley's "tax loophole" commission is incapable of fashioning a sound reform plan. It lacks guiding principles, is using a faulty definition of 'loophole,' and is more interested in raising tax revenue than reducing tax biases." (04/01)
