Let's say the FBI decided to investigate every town, city and parish government in Louisiana. I am talking about every mayor, aldermen, councilmen, school board member, police department, assessor's office, clerk of court.. I am talking about every department. Animal control, whatever.

Do you think they find more than they expect? Do you think they uncover things we couldn't ever imagine?

I'd like to know how many departments, that only deal in cash, would have people in it who skims from the money..

I believe a lot of the construction projects budgets were inflated compared to their quotes. Basically embezzlement off the top from people like gravy Chambers

Tens of thousands would be jailed.

Not an exaggeration. Tens of thousands.

They would find years and years of promotions, positions, appointments, etc with quid pro quo’s attachments.

They’d find millions in misallocated funds/taxes.

They’d find many unreported and buried cases in which violations were reported and ignored

They would probably find dirt in 75% of the sheriff departments and 50% of the parish councils, etc

Maybe more than THEY expect, but we all know they would for sure find all kinds of shite, no doubt.

Nah, we know this state is crooked from top to bottom and in every crevice in between.

There would be all sorts of corrupt things they would find. Thousands of things. It’s probably best that we just never know the truth

They'd still conclude that you should honor your ban bet.

That brings up something else. How many government contractors overcharge (or charge for things they don't need or use) on gov projects? I bet there isn't a company out there that hasn't done it at least once.

I think they would find exactly what they expect. Corruption from the bottom up.

Like all of the contractors that gouged the state after the 2016 flood. "We're contracted to do $2000 in repairs to get the home livable. This 2x4 sink is worth $500, walking in the door is another $500 and checking the electricity will be another $1k.

Every department would be fricked....the New Orleans and Baton Rouge investigations would be racist.

I do know this, my English isn't as bad as your obsession with me. It's starting to get to the point where I really do think you have some type of obsession with me. You will make some kind of remark asking why would you be obsessed (then throw in some stupid "you can't walk" comment), but it's to the point where I can't post without you following me into a thread.
