The John Locke Foundation is the latest group to speak out against efforts by Gov. Perdue and the N.C. Senate to seize Alcoa’s privately-owned dams along the Yadkin River.
In a May 6 blog posting, policy analyst Daren Bakst says:
Both Republicans and Democrats are trying to seize a business so the state can run the business.
Here’s a little nugget from Senator Hartsell (R-Cabarrus):
“I think it's important for us as North Carolinians to be able to control our water, clean up our environment and encourage appropriate economic development in the area," said Sen. Fletcher Hartsell, R-Cabarrus. "The dams are going to be run, but the first thing they're going to be run for is for the people of this state.”
Hugo Chavez couldn't have said it any better.
Try distinguishing what Venezuela is doing and what state Republicans and Democrats want to do. Good luck.
