Re: the election.

Many people in my office complained about Bev Perdue and how "corrupt" she was. I have no idea about that, but I do know that the current crop appears to be worse AND they are bound and determined to "reform" the tax code (really "deform" it), which from basic math, likely means services will be slashed and we state employees will take it on the chin. I'm predicting layoffs. I wonder how my colleagues who voted for these monsters will feel about that when their jobs are on the chopping block? I'll try to refrain from saying "I told you so."

Although, I must be losing my mind, but McCrory sounded somewhat reasonable on the tax reform thing, in that he does not want to extend the sales tax to food and medicine. My standards for reasonable need to be calibrated, obviously.
