State to run short on funds for sports teams?
The state is short more than $6 million of what is needed this year to pay contractual obligations to the New Orleans Saints and New Orleans Hornets professional sports teams
I thought we had a billion dollar surplus. The required payment to the sports teams represents less than 1% of the money in our surplus funds.
Bobby Jindal, in presenting the budget, should have made sure that obligations to pay businesses currently in Louisiana are met. How on earth can we expect to attract new businesses to Louisiana if we cannot fulfill the promises to existing Louisiana businesses?
Just sayin…
