After imposing a statewide hiring freeze that has disrupted the operations of several state agencies (most notably the LSU hospital system before it was granted an exception), the Governor immediately pushes to boost the salary of his economic development secretary by $75,000.

Of course, as we in New Orleans know already, slashing the front line workforce while boosting compensation for executives and consultants is a standard move in the Reform-Dragonslaying playbook.
