Government spending taxpayer money. Gee. What a concept. He’s spending a previous years surplus to fund roads and bridges. New construction and repairs and economic developement. Are you proposing to say that road building is not the proper function of government? Are you saying that conservatives are against road improvements?
Sigh...
Yes, that's the ticket!! Government spending is economic development!! You sound just like Obama, spouting that claptrap.
Today here in Louisiana we are now building 4-lane roads that aren't needed and bridges to nowhere. Meanwhile the road maintenance program doesn't keep up the roads we have now.
Louisiana now has 4,000 more state employees today than when Jindal was sworn in. Look it up.
What I'm telling you is the man is a tax and spend Republican.
