Legislature ’08: Pass cig tax to fund Medicaid
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 4/10/8 Mississippi lawmakers have the opportunity to pass a budget and go home, but they are instead piddling around the Capitol wasting taxpayers’ money because they are too afraid of Gov.

Cronyism: Keeping Anderson high price to pay

The siege of State Farm
The siege of State Farm Scruggs was someone who could render all of State Farm’s actuarial calculations irrelevant, because he had the power and know-how to force it to rewrite its contracts retroactively.
