Not exactly what I would flog, but Scott Stone has definitely come up with different vision for Charlotte’s future compared to the status quo approach. The emphasis on lower taxes and more efficient government as a way to cook entrepreneurial activity is a major break with the Uptown crowd’s top-down, Star Chamber approach.
What I would love to hear now is — well, nevermind. I was looking backward to previous GOP standard bearers. Stone is clearly trying to forge a new path, informed by fiscal reality, so that is pretty impressive in and of itself for a community now three years into denial.
