The N.C. General Assembly


Bills Introduced by Representative Insko

"The role of government is to provide for the common good and protect the vulnerable. Essential public services include education, health and social services, environmental protection, transportation, and community safety. We should provide these services within the context of a healthy market system which works best when true competition exists, citizens can choose among competitors, and government regulation is adequate to insure competition but is not unnecessarily burdensome. I favor paying for essential services with non-regressive taxes and focusing on prevention and early intervention rather than waiting for a crisis."
