I'd also argue that almost any law lessening the governments ability to track an individual can be considered small government.

Right. I can’t believe anyone is seriously arguing that this bill is some kind of roundabout check on government tracking/overreach.

Must be Jeff Landry’s target audience.

I won’t speak to the college level, but at the HS level, profit margins go up when you eliminate cash transactions.

Thats what i figured too. Faster transactions, less theft or errors.

I just wanted to make sure this was typical Louisiana going backwards, Glad that's confirmed.

At the going rate of concessions that Dave Ramsey Concession envelop must be pretty full of cash to afford a handful of nacho chips with a drop of Nacho cheese, a lukewarm beer, and a hot dog that gets lost in the bun.

At LSU events? Probably not. I hate the trend of trying to eliminate cash though and will usually not come back if a place refuses to take it.

No idea how specific this bill gets, but I wonder if LSU can put a machine in the stadium that dispenses concession cards. If you want to use cash, go to the machine, put your cash in, and get a disposable card with the amount you want, then go to the concession stand and buy your food.

People that are against this or think it's a non issue have no idea what is really going on in the world outside their state.

As much as this guy hates illegal immigrants it’s nice he just made it possible for them to utilize the concessions in Tiger Stadium.
