now JBE is using scare tactics to get the legislative attention...

At least you realize Jindal and his legislature created this, but I'm not sure this is scare tactics. Those would be things like "if we don't raise taxes on dog owners, new orleans is going to fall into the gulf."

What we're hearing now mostly comes from Jay Dardenne and the fact is that now that we have sound accounting practices we are realizing "holy shite, we're 3 billion in the hole over the next two years."

For a good example of how much money that is:

1,000,000 - that's a million. that's .033% of the amount of shortfall we have.

I would have to print that out 3,000 times to get to 3 billion.

This is no joke, and you clowns need to recognize that.
