It's long past time. Just do it.
First sign of a pop in the next housing bubble. Many are already finding housing - whether to own or to rent - unaffordable. How many more people will find themselves in that situation when the next govt-induced housing bubble pops? #AffordableHousing #ncpol https://t.co/IqqRajk14L

If by "government-induced" you mean Trump jacking up tariffs (which American homebuilders have to pay) on lumber and other construction raw materials, then yeah. I'll agree with you there. But not all government is the same, and your ambiguous references reveal more ideology than thought.
Here is a chart showing average teacher pay in NC & the US adjusted for inflation to real 2020 $. NC's teachers & students deserve much better than the NCGOP offers. #ncpol #nced pic.twitter.com/uD48ZirYqy

Back when that downward curve first started (2008) Bush was more concerned about bailing out the banks than helping public service workers. It's been an uphill battle for NC teachers since then, and will continue to be as long as the NC GOP is clutching the purse strings.
Preparations are under way for #tomatosandwichday #ncpol many thanks to @SenatorRickGunn lovely wife Gayle for providing critical supplies and MORE critical intel! pic.twitter.com/c6E7DXYxi2

Just in case you're not up on the gossip, Rick Gunn got sued for alienation of affection by the ex-husband of his girlfriend (who worked for him). I'm surprised Gayle would set foot in that place, much less bring sandwich fixins.
Wow. @RepDanBishop is spreading FBI conspiracy theories. Is this the Representative District 9 needs? We Can Do Better! As your Congressman, I will focus on facts and the needs of D9. #NatSec #ncpol Help me defeat Dan Bishop by retweeting and donating @ https://t.co/OFosXt3bJR pic.twitter.com/zh1yWIvhPf

Not sure who all will step up to run against Bishop, but I like this guy Ram. And not just because of the name, either, but it is a cool name. I will have to figure out how to pronounce it before I meet him, though...
Perspective. Not shared by NC media anywhere. #ncpol https://t.co/QZv4VgOe94

It's not shared because it's pointless, and offensive as hell. There's nothing "comforting" about a 4%-12.5% fatality rate, unless you're a sociopath.
GOP operative tweets stunning criticism of @NCGOP failed leadership: "Under the GOP's destructive leadership, UNC has endured a series of political and cultural disasters that have moved it from being a national treasure to an international embarrassment." #ncga #ncpol https://t.co/EKLiJah2Np

Apparently Dallas is still reading BlueNC. But is it opposition research or has he finally realized he's been playing for the wrong team? Thanksgiving would go easier on mom if her boys would start agreeing with each other...
On that unlikely note, here's your Onion:

I'm not sure why that is so funny (maybe because the interpretive dance reference reminds me of the Big Lebowski), but I am still laughing.
