Faux-Libertarian Art Pope redistributes wealth

Smacked in the head with the irony stick:

PopeFoundation 8:59am via HootSuite Pope Fnd Chairman Art Pope serves with 14 other North Carolinians on the Golden LEAF board. ow.ly/etLmz #ncpol #ncga

The guy is supposed to a be champion for free market principles, stalwartly defending private enterprises from overzealous government intervention. But now he's deciding how to spend profits that were confiscated from a wildly successful private business via a radical court system. Which should cause an internal conflict of keep-you-up-at-night proportions. If he was really a Libertarian, that is.

Note: I like Golden LEAF

But I don't like hypocrites.
