He didn't cut the workforce


I have worked with state government nearly everyday for almost 20 years, employees left for private companies as has always happened, but their position was not backfilled per the "administrative directive", that directive was not in place 10 years ago, that's not shadow games. Every state agency I work with have less workers now that they did in 2008, every single one of them, that's not shadow games. I also have multiple direct family members in state government and they don't like Jindal because they saw programs shrink and friends lose jobs, that's not shadow games. That's my first hand.

I wasn't saying it didn't happen, but there were many "games" played, and you are correct on the backfilling. When positions would go vacant he would just eliminate them, he also eliminated positions that were vacant for a long time, that is what I know firsthand. My only point was that he didn't cut the actual workforce as much as that article suggests. The guy was as slimy as they come.
