What's that? Corruption in New Orleans? You're kidding!

I would doubt very much this type of government corruption is just limited to and only isolated in New Orleans. I'd like to see a completely independent group of people/investigators audit all government. Local, states, feds, everyone. The results would probably be alarming.

This is just another reason to question government, at every level, their every move.

It appears phantom payroll may be a common problem. Someone was discussing yesterday the various ways to nail the problem. She worked at a hospital that had the problem. I suspect it is all over our government.

Blanco refused to discuss Brown's allegations today under oath.

I agree. New Orleans though, has a reputation of being blatantly corrupt at all levels of government. I also agree that municipal and local governments need to be more closely monitored. When New Orleans is finished, Chicago should be next on the list.
