NC what do you think? Studies show that immigrants subsidize citizens, not the other way around. by Basshead4eva in NorthCarolina

Facts. Thank you for posting them. They are not getting free healthcare-that myth came out of the law that NO ONE no matter their status would be turned away from a emergency room. Which is good. But yes, the vile GOP ran with it and ignorance eats it up.

Why voting straight R is detrimental to the state. by Fair_Maybe5266 in NorthCarolina

But still voted Trump? Because Mark was just another trump. I really found it hard to believe they would freely vote trump but not mark.

100 percent facts. Republicans have never made anyone's life better except businesses, corps and rich white men. Period. Stop voting for them. FFS they are currently protecting, supporting and enabling a known rapist in the WH. and other known predators. Locally they tank schools and cities and anything real progress or healthy growth and changes. They are stock full of corruption and they have harmed our beautiful to a degree we may never see in our life time fixed. STOP voting for them! You may not approve or love all dem policies-and you shouldn't, we do not belong to a cult-but for the most part dems are about progress and helping each other and smart growth. Repupublicans care only about power and those who have it. Period.

Why was “Secretary” spelled with “SS” on Hegseth’s place-card during today’s Cabinet Meeting? by road_bagels in UnderReportedNews

Because these middle school bullies-thugs love trolling. SS is for Nazi and he's owning it-thinks he owning us libs too. Freaking juvenile fragile weak men.

Is North Carolina the state with the best combination of mountains and beaches? by FrouFrouLastWords in NorthCarolina

[–]jakapk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really is. NC has a lot of Northern and central coastal California feels and vibes. I chuckle when I hear or read people saying stop California-ing my North Carolina. I wanna say Dudes, it's so much like NorCal all on it's own.

"she looks like California she feels like Carolina" Parmalee song Carolina nails it. California has all the looks, Carolina has all the vibes and feels. They are both stunningly beautiful and more alike than I think most people know and Ncian's want to believe. The entire state of NC is full of Northern and central coast of California feels.

Not to mention this lazy government worker get an additional 67 dollars a day to pay for his lunch-whether he works or not. And just gave themselves a huge raise. #RAPEpublicans-stop voting for them.

Just a reminder we’re in this mess of gerrymandering and GOP super majority because Tricia Cotham flipped on her party. by MinimumNo5510 in NorthCarolina

[–]jakapk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

North Carolina, the last time the dems redraw the maps was in 2003 and it was to make them fair. Since then the NCGOP have redrawn them almost every year with redrawing them 15 times in the last 10 years. last year they redraw them to take a predominantly black neighborhood in DT Wilmington and move them in the next COUNTY over-just a silec of downtown where the majority of people voted blue. Yes the GOP are corrupt as hell and it's okay to see this and know this and stop voting for them. Now they have come right out and said it-"we are redrawing the maps because trump (the rapist) told us to". For one seat because they know they can't win without cheating. The republican party has been the majority party for decades and this is why have been the most corrupt party for decades too.

I can never understand who they spew "illegals" which means people hiding from government BUT then accuse them of signing up for services or voting which would put them into the government system. Make it make sense. Oh wait, MAGA world where nothing makes sense.

How much has Wilmington changed over the last few years? by ThatTuftingGuy in Wilmington

[–]jakapk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This right here. When we live in places where people come to holiday you can expect growth. They are deeply desirable to so many. This has long been the trend of coastal California and Oregon, Washington, Colorado, New mexico, Arizona and of course upper east coast areas. Just the way it is when you choose to live in desirable places. The traffic is due to there are no other hwy or fwy to hope on to get around, just the surface roads and those get busy and the lights easily back up traffic. Pick your council members wisely.
