Louisiana stays shitty and poor because people like you shout down any attempt to modernize it.
Or maybe people flee the state due to the high taxation and political corruption. But, please let's tax us more so we can get a new arena. All those high rollers that fly into BTR can look at the weeds along the interstate and busted arse harding blvd. Not to the mention the poors that fly commercial and get to be greeted by parish prison.

A small use tax, which is basically what this is, is more than fair to get a modern arena and the benefits that come with it, of which there are many.
If they’re going to tax the whole state you would have a better point, but you cannot get good jobs and the people qualified for those jobs to come here without top tier entertainment options. And you can’t get those type entertainment options without this kind of an arena.

Sounds like the only people would be taxed are the ones going to the arena. So basically tickets and popcorn cost a bit more.
