Of course it is. I thought this was common knowledge. Only other state that comes close to being as big of a shite show is Illinois.

Poverty: 20.2% (2nd highest)
The report notes many of worst managed states have low budgets, and Louisiana is no different. The state collects the equivalent of $2,071 per person in tax revenue per year compared to the average of $2,821 that other state collect.
The burden is on too few people is the problem. The productive people are being fleeced for a bullshite government which panders to keep people in poverty.

I guess so, our flagship city, N.O., is run by liberabl morons and just elected a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER as mayor with open credut card fraud indictments against HER arse, which is BLACK.
Let that sink in so you might understand why things in LA are bad

Best run...notice anything they have in common?
Minnesota
Utah
Iowa
Oregon
Washington
Nebraska
North Dakota
Idaho
Colorado
Hawaii
ETA: the methodology really has very little to do with how well they are run, but is more focused on economic stability issues such as unemployment, income, migration etc. This suggests that states with the strongest economies are the best run by government suggesting government is to blame if the economy is bad, or to be credited if the economy is good.

I still think Alabama's is worse.
Of course, that's probably just splitting hairs of crappiness.

Yeah, no doubt.
But I am not sure I buy off an every measure they have. For example, our unemployment insurance payout is too low? Really?
And our unemployment rate was high but a lot of that has to do with the oil bust. I guess long term a better government might have found a way to diversify the economy; but has very little influence in the short term.

5 of the top 9 best run are blue states. Interesting.

Can anyone get to the actual report? The two links in the article just take me to the home page.

Kansas is in a lot worse shape fiscally speaking than Louisiana, due to that rightwing nutjob, Sam Brownback. And the fiscal mess Louisiana is currently dealing with is largely due to OUR little rightwing idiot, Bobby Jindal.
