Kudos to Gov. Mary Fallin, who made it clear in her State of the State address this month that “the growth of government shouldn’t outpace growth in the private sector.” Unfortunately, that is exactly what’s been happening in Oklahoma over the last few decades, as this nifty data tool from the Tax Foundation demonstrates.
