Poll Shows North Carolinians Paying Too Much in Taxes
Two-thirds of North Carolinians think they’re paying too much in taxes.According to the April DecisionMaker Poll by the conservative Civitas Institute, 66 percent of likely voters think state taxes are too high for the services they receive.
Twenty-nine percent believe taxes are about right, and only 2 percent said they are too low.
“North Carolina residents overwhelming agree that they are not getting back in services what they are paying in taxes,” said Executive Director Francis DeLuca in a statement.
Of course the overwhelmingly majority think the taxes are too high. They are! I would like to know exactly where these 66% of people have been at election time, though, because they sure haven’t shown up to vote in low tax, low government representatives to their State Legislature.
When you have a leftist government controlling things this is the result you get: high taxes, high waste, and high crime, all three of which exist in North Carolina and are growing rapidly.
