  4. Nursing homes are no longer a core function of county government, but here's a suggestion for Senator Miller: Each year State Reps and Senators get automatic salary COLAs. How about also indexing the state Medicaid reimbursement rate to inflation?

  7. One of the most corrupt politicians. Made millions in sketchy property sales around the NIZ while a senator. Look up Queen City Realty. More to come on this.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
