Bodi White has never been a congressman. He was in the La. House of Reps, not congress. He got term limited in the HoR so he ran for senate. When he's term limited in the senate he hopes to run for mayor of SG. That's part of his motivation for forming SG.

I thought Bodi White lived in Central?

Why would he want to be mayor of a new city, with few employees, and a tight budget anyway???

All of us here know I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I find it hard to believe White aspires to be the mayor of SG. That seems to be a big step down to me.

He's not going to be mayor or appoint himself to the council, but it is silly to think there aren't people drooling at the black hole that the city's finances will become.

At least with EBR you know where all the contracts for individual services and whatnot are going. With SG there will be a general contractor who will not need to disclose who they give our money to in order to carry out city services. Opening the gate to more corruption doesn't mean that corruption will happen. It's just a moral hazard and theres politicians have proven they won't be able to resist the temptation.
