Trading state taxes for taxes at the parish level is still TAXES. It's semantics. As governor I lowered your state taxes, but it was your local government that kept them or increased them. If you want to cut taxes then let's really cut them, and services. Just state what taxes and services are on the chopping block. Be Transparent!

It allows each parish or municipal govt. to tax their citizens as they wish, at the level they wish, and not have to beg the state for funds or fight for their "share".

A Governor like Edwards doesn't want change, he wants to hand out the pork. Rispone realizes it's a bad system, and wants to end it.
