Abstract:
North Carolina is experiencing a budget crisis during the current recession. Some legislators want to divert money from the Highway Trust Fund to education, environmental, and social programs. It is unlikely to happen due to the culture of the legislature and the financial contributions of the transportation lobbyists. Meanwhile NC has the highest infant mortality rate in the country, is near the bottom in SAT scores, and is among the lowest spenders on environmental protection projects.

Abstract:
North Carolina’s General Assembly recently approved an 8.8 billion dollar highway project while slashing the state’s Basic Education Program by 40 percent. NC has one of the worst education systems in the nation highlighted by the Newsweek article “Tar Heel Dunce Cap.” Citizens were willing to accept an increase in taxes for “higher teacher pay and better schools,” but the new gasoline tax will go to fund the highway system. Many are criticizing the state government for neglecting students to add what is already the nation’s largest state highway system.

Abstract:
Although there has been some fall off in tax collections as compared to estimates, a recent study by the Wall Street Journal shows that North Carolina is in no worse condition that many others states. A growing number of states that levy consumption taxes as a source of state operating revenue are falling into the red as spending outweighs recession-eroded revenues.
