Does the state tax groceries for consumption? Cant remember if the stelly tax stuff being repealed took that away or not.
We don't pay taxes on groceries in Texas. Is it not the same in LA?

The problem is the Homestead Exemption is at 75k.
I think for this to pass you are going to have to put a cap on Sales tax so that people living in the cities don't pay 12.5%. Probably cap it at around 10%.
In order to offset it, I wouldn't be shocked to see a movement to lower the Homestead Exemption to 50k.
Not at all positive about the numbers, but you get the general idea.

We just pay parish tax on food items.
