Ogre’s Politics and Views

Les Merritt is the North Carolina State Auditor. He has announced his plans to track state government grants to local governments. This could be interesting because over $13 billion flows from the state to local governments — and many “non-profits” are funded by local governments. Do you suppose a large portion of funding is flowing to the “non-profits” — many of which have state government politicians on their “board of directors” or employed as “consultants?” This should be a very interesting program to watch and monitor. Now if we could just get all the “non-profits” to reveal their employee lists for all to see, we might get a whole new picture of the real use of “non-profits” in North Carolina.
