1. No SNAP benefits at the grocery store.
Go back to government cheese. Set up satellite stores like the BR food bank all over the state. Nobody will ever get off of food stamps if they get to shop at Whole Foods with other people's money.
2. Proof of insurance sticker on car
Just like an inspection sticker/break tag, companies must provide stickers that can be easily scanned. OR... If you don't carry insurance, you can't sue anyone in an accident.
3. NO lawyer billboards.
No explanation necessary.

I’ve been saying this forever. It should be a government store with all the staples and generic food. You would cut down on fraud and could keep an accurate account of what the money is being spent on.
But your Rouses and Walmarts would never go for it and would fight with everything they have.

These are great ideas. And the take a test to vote from above are great ideas.

This. And the vehicle needs to be towed to the impound lot if in a wreck or stopped for speeding if you don't have insurance or legit plates.

Not factoring in the money, saved from people getting off of food stamps, and becoming productive members of society, what is the cheapest way to provide nutrients to poor people?
Setting up stores seems expensive, the money spent having employees, store fronts, or even government. Made foods could just be given straight to the consumer, and I imagine that is what has happened, but it is not productive in getting people off of food stamps.
The cheapest foods are the most unhealthy. Maybe just staples from Walmart, and certain whole foods not highly processed Cheetos?

I get the frustration but SNAP is 0.005% of the federal budget. And that very small percentage floats most rural grocers.
To answer the question:
Decrease the size of State government so that income tax is eliminated.
Create a corporate tax structure that gives companies a guarantee on what their taxes cost, instead of just telling them they’ll rubber stamp their property tax exemptions.
Get rid of the Saints and Pelicans. They only benefit New Orleans and the rest of the State has to foot the bill.
