GOVERNMENT JOBS AND PAY
State government employment and salaries have grown substantially under Gov. Bobby Jindal, following a trend of rising personnel costs that is putting immense pressure on the public purse.
From the state budget figures it looks like the Louisiana budget is going DOWN by $3.5 billion in the current fiscal year- a 12% total budget reduction.
I would love to have Jindal in the White House if he could do the same thing to the federal budget.
