Laveesh Bhandari and Bibek Debroy, economists who together wrote a critical 2009 report, documented a steady slippage in performance from policing to health care to education, finding that the state had fallen behind in school dropout rates, in average class size and in jobless rates for those who manage to get an education.
But the main culprit is educational slippage.This poor performance has a racial tinge.
"If they believe you are doing everything you possibly can, they might accept some performance slippage," said Susan Rivera, the president of an A.I.G. division that sells workers' compensation and other business insurance.

Different sizes within the same product also varied in performance (slippage at 19° for the 'small' sized sock and 30° for the 'medium' sized sock of the same brand in one participant).
But slippages in the performance also showed the difficulty and strain of those endless repetitions.
With several national polls showing a dead-heat race before the second debate, Republicans expressed confidence that Mr. Bush's improved showing on Friday would stem the slippage from his angrier performance in the first meeting.
The results indicate that toroids produced using variable slippage coefficients show improved performance than toroids using constant slippage coefficients; this is mainly due to the maximum utilization of the laminate strength.
It is conceivable that slippage characteristics, and therefore performance, of these foot conditions might vary during dynamic walking on a level surface.
Blake, who beat the French qualifier Olivier Patience, 6-1, 6-2, 6-2, on Friday, did not have as painful a season in 2003 as Safin, but he was dissatisfied with his performance and his slippage in the ranking from a high of 22 to 37 by the end of the year.
The proposed model is a combination of two existing models in the literature, namely an analytical model to predict the theoretical pump performance, and a slippage model.
