Anonymous Coward User ID: 38267031 United States 04/23/2015 09:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Like its conservative counterpart in Kansas, Louisiana’s experiment with conservative economics has led to a financial crisis of baffling proportions. Led by its perpetual bad idea machine, Governor Bobby Jindal, the state has almost no semblance of an economy and now is struggling to keep even basic services funded. Given the dire straits, it’s absolutely no surprise that one of the first things up to the chopping block is higher education. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 65727086 In today’s job market a college degree is essential, but don’t tell that to Louisiana’s lawmakers – they are cutting funding to their state’s public universities by such a massive extent that many, including the state’s biggest, Louisiana State University, are drawing up plans for how to handle their inevitable bankruptcy. Jindal’s strategy is offensively obvious: Pick on the gay people, maybe then voters won’t notice the boarded up schools, the 7.2 percent unemployment rate, the flagging economy, or the healthcare mess created by the state’s refusal to cooperate with Obamacare. Sick, unemployed and stupid, Louisianans are truly living in a Republican-created nightmare, but at least their governor is committed to also being a bigot.

Maguyver User ID: 808852 United States 04/24/2015 01:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The schools will find a way to make it, with or without gov't funding. The increase in tuition has greatly outpaced inflation for decades. About time they have to cut back some. But, back to the original comment, it is a LIE! The budget stripped hospital spending that used to be part of that budget, taking millions from it. Looks bad if you just look at the numbers without realizing where the money went.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 7612889 United States 04/24/2015 01:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's awesome, because you people are proud that you're dumb and not afraid to admit it. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 65727086 Your nation swirls in the toilet, and you're all just visually enthralled with the spiraling motion before you. Here's a different perspective-if college was so essential and valuable wouldn't the private sector fund it? I personally think the gov should provide some funding for public universities but it has just gone way overboard. Do a google search on what has happened with the UC system in california. They recently took 1 billion of tax payer money and decided to use it for global warming research. It's just out of control. It would just be nice if it was more private sector oriented, it would be more attached to value. |

The Louisiana government has lost like half of it's revenue due to the oil price collapse which has nothing to do with His governing skills. You dumb ass lefties need a hair cut. We have all lost income security except for left wing assholes like You. I think it's high time government workers and welfare abusers eat out of the same dish We have these last 8 years. |

It only reinforces the formidable amount of studies which show racists and conservatives to be the dumbest of low IQ dumb-fucks. Please, keep it up, I LOVE IT!! |
