It is a solution for St. George.

It's really not. As a resident of area, I agree that making a cash grab to keep all the sales tax from Baton Rouge's largest retail centers for ourselves sounds interesting, but when the rest of baton rouge goes bankrupt, the economy of the whole area plummets faster than we've ever seen. Then sales tax revenue falls, and now "St. George" is bankrupt too. Suddenly, poverty and crime are at all time highs in both areas.
