    6000 Out of Jobs in North Carolina

     

    Due to the NC Supreme Court ruling of sweepstakes, on Jan 3 2013 over 6000 people will become unemployed. If that's not enough the NC economy is about to lose over $200,000,000.00 in revenue that has been generated by sweepstakes businesses. Thousands of real estate properties will also become empty. As hard as times are and hard as it is to find jobs this decision will really hurt the North Carolina economy and North Carolina Citizens.
    One question that keeps coming up is, where is all the money coming from to pay the millions of dollars to 6000 newly unemployed citizens?
