In his bid to become North Carolina’s first Black governor, Republican Mark Robinson assails government safety net spending as a “plantation of welfare and victimhood” that's mired Black people in “dependency” and poverty.
Remember, for the GOP, tax funds exist only to be looted by political cronies… if the money is being spent on things that actually benefit taxpayers, then there is less for them to loot, which they won’t abide.
The organization, funded entirely by taxpayers, has collected roughly $7 million in government funding since 2017, while paying out at least $830,000 in salaries to Hill, Robinson and other members of their family, tax filings and state documents show.
That's $120k/year if it was to a single person, but it's to several. Feels like a non-story, he's clearly not getting rich off of this.
