I was going to argue the cost that the illegal population costs the state, but when you divide 244M by 60K that comes out to 3,733.33 per illegal which is a believable number.

I've seen topics about Louisiana's budget struggle, how much of that is linked to Medicaid and its recent expansion (lowering of financial standards to receive it)?

So, let's focus on things that state government CAN control, shall we?

Legalize pot, get rid of the insane perpetuity law suits against oil and gas, sue the feds for offshore oil revs or create a way to charge them for tax revenues the feds recover from off shore oil.

From the Department of Pulling Numbers Out of Their arse.

Really. At the bottom the document cites ITSELF as the source for the data.

Or you can just tax them.

Have them pay $3000/pp each per year, and the state agrees not to report them to the feds. Everyone wins...

A casino or lottery tickets will cure our societal ills if we just adopt these revenue generators.
