26 years later, Friedman’s free-market ideas meet NC’s ballot (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Twenty-six years ago today, economist Milton Friedman sat down for an interview about freedom and free markets. On Oct. 1, 2000, Friedman was asked by PBS why freedom and free markets were inseparable. His simple explanation is worth remembering as North Carolina voters prepare to consider three constitutional amendments this fall. “Freedom requires individuals to be free to use their own resources in their own way,” Friedman said, explaining that the free market allows people to cooperate volun

In last week’s Carolina Journal Poll, 49.5% of North Carolina likely voters favored Democratic candidates to 41.3% who said they intend to vote for a Republican.

Read excerpt
North Carolina is directing more than $122 million in federal disaster recovery funding toward affordable housing in western North Carolina, with new programs aimed at both renters and prospective homeowners as communities continue rebuilding from Hurricane Helene. The funding announced nearly 23 months after the storm, on Aug. 25, includes more than $69 million for 10 multifamily rental projects expected to create 828 affordable rental units in 10 western counties. The state also opened applica
