The streets and sewers are falling apart, police are quitting and we just set an all time homicide record

Corrected headline: Shreveport has enough money to just give away almost $1M in a year.

OK, well that solves everything. Give em free money, so they work less, and it does nothing to improve anything or anybody!

That's the American way!

Shreveport is a shithole and sounds like it ain't over yet.

$870,000 worth of benefits total

On top of the likely free housing/medical/groceries/EBT already secured by the applicants

$7,000 extra per family on top of EITC…


Great time to be “poor”

We are such suckers for working for a living.

As well as hand over a million dollar recycling contract to a person with zero experience in recycling, zero staff, zero trucks. Should be interesting seeing this pulled off. We got tons of money to try things with but not enough to pay our law enforcement solid wages.

Do they have to give up all their other government cheese (food stamps, Section 8, Medicaid, SSI, etc.)?
