. >> i would like to add one comment, jack dalrymple from north dakota. we are one of the lucky ones in north dakota. we have a very strong economy. we actually have a budget surplus in our state, so we were able to deal with the effects of sequestration, but they are real. many cases. especially in areas like flood ortrol or water supplies especially roads and highways. we have had to make up for substantial amount of funding with our own state funds. and we feel blessed that we were able to do that, but these are real dollars, and of course we would like it if the federal funding would continue at the levels that it had been, but, you know, we find our way to stay ahead. i think what frustrates people is the silliness that you get into indie sequestration process . of a part-example time information person at our national park system who provided information to tauru tourists on the interstate highway every summer on how to find the park. the total cost of the part-time person was $35,000, and the federal government chose to cut and he got quite a bit o

joining me on the phone with the secrets of his success, the governor of north dakota, jack dalrympleoining us. >> happy to do it, melissa. melissa: fifth year in a row you're sitting at the top. unemployment rate is 2.7%. your jobs market is so tight we keep hearing stories of $300 signing bonuses for folks at mcdonald's and fast-food restaurants. gas station attendants make $50,000 a year. is your job market too tight? >> well we could use more work for us every day. there are people coming to north dakota to help us fill jobs. but that's the way we like to have it. our unemployment rate is the lowest in the nation at 2.7%. melissa: you're blessed from a lost natural resources. a lot comes from bakken shale and natural gas and fossil fuel creation but at the same time there are other states that are blessed with the same resources and don't take advantage of it. what advice would you give to other states who need more jobs. >> we've been working on this with john hoeven and and i when i tack r took over the governor's office. it's a long-term proposition. tough create a friendly bus
