Balance The State Budget

January 12, 2011 by NC Tea Party Staff 2 Comments

This interactive budget tool was designed for citizens to evaluate some of the options available to legislators to balance the coming 2011-12 state budget.
The list of options provided here is by no means intended to be complete, but rather a sampling of some of the larger or potentially controversial options facing state budget writers.
The goal is to get to $3.7 billion to balance the budget.

We’d love to see what you, the TEA Party movement, would choose to cut. Come back and leave a comment with the items you chose to cut in this exercise, and your reasons why!

    I balanced the budget plus 300 million extra dollars.

    completely cut all subsidies
    offered HSA to state employees
    state employees contribute to the state health plan $40, retired $60
    5% salary and work force reduction
    employee pension payment goes from 6% to 8%
    Tryon Place, Office of State Archaeology, NC Arts council, Statewide arts and culture grants, all de-funded
    Welcome centers, Tourism film and sport development agency, and state parks defunded
    Selected all education cuts
    Sell all assets to private interests, and freeze state land purchases
    Dissolve GoldenLEAF
    Consolidate agriculture research center management
    Dissolve rural economic development center

    I did NOT legalize gambling and tax them. No thanks, I’m not for corrupting the spirit.
