Gov. McCrory: We need fewer lawyers, fewer journalists and more truck drivers

Gov. Pat McCrory (R-NC) said that North Carolina needs fewer journalists and lawyers and more truck drivers and technical workers as he unveiled his “1,000 in 100” work force development initiative in Greensboro as part of a three-city tour. “We've frankly got enough psychologists and sociologists and political science majors and journalists. With all due respect to journalism, we've got enough. We have way too many," McCrory said to laughter from the audience. He said we have too many lawyers too, adding that some mechanics are making more than lawyers. "And journalists, did I say journalists?" he said for emphasis.
