The Statesman Says:
March 4th, 2009 at 7:21 amThese figures are shocking.
What do people do to end this madness? Huckabee grew government at an unacceptable rate, now Beebe wants a 10% increase in state employees in a single year!!!! The rest of the people in this state are CUTTING BACK. The government on all levels seems completely oblivious to growing discontent of the people who are paying for all of this.
The one department they are reducing is BANKING. While the nation is moving to more oversight of banks in Arkansas it is the one place they want to trim!
