Another big issue is that Cajun culture historically *does not* put a lot of emphasis on economic productivity and enterprise.



When I think of prominent cultures/demographics in LA that aren't economically productive, Cajun is definitely on the top of the list.

We had a good life in Arizona for 35+ years prior to returning home to Louisiana. The whole time we were away there were so many things about here we missed - namely the people and conservativism, for the most part.
Louisiana has a ton of stuff going against it but there are some great things here that can't be duplicated elsewhere.

I've learned not to question anything regarding their economy.

I can explain the demographics of Louisiana: half of the population is poor blacks who live in fatherless households and on welfare. They commit 99% of the violent, drug-related crimes and contribute nothing positive. The other half is low middle-class Cajun people who work service industry jobs like waiting tables, plumbing, HVAC, and commercial fishing. These people never went to college, and do the bare minimum that’s necessary to keep a roof above their heads.
