MAGINNIS SAYS THAT LOUISIANA IS STILL UNETHICAL AT THE BOTOM

Louisiana political pundit John Maginnis wrote in his most recent column that " Despite the trappings of ethics reform, the ease with which mayors, police chiefs and councilmen were corrupted by a fantasy scheme sends a sorry signal of what other politicians might be inclined to do, given the opportunity". (See: "Maginnis: Politicians' pursuits belie Louisiana's push to clean up act").


"The ethics climate at the top levels of state government may have improved, but down where business is done, old ways are hard to leave behind." id.
