Lawsuit against Bribery

The lawsuit continues against the state of North Carolina for giving away over $260 million in taxpayer funds to bribe the private company, Dell Inc., to move to North Carolina.

In 1995 the State Supreme Court ruled that so-called "incentives" are legal and constitutional. It is highly likely that the court will rule that way again -- after all government begets government.

What's even more troubling is a lawyer for the defense said, “It’s really a case against the people’s government, and that government is clearly doing what it was elected to do."

If that's true, then the battle is truly lost. If people are electing government to take care of them and redistribute wealth, then we honestly are beyond that point of no return -- there can never be freedom if that is the purpose of government. Those that produce are now outnumbered by those that do not produce -- and nothing short of a serious revolution will change that.

1 I have always said that the only way to change the American government is to get rid of all the current officals and start over. This just proves it.

2 Certainly in North Carolina -- and yes, Nationwide. A group of people in PA are giving that a shot this year -- http://www.pacleansweep.com/
