Why Louisiana needs to move away from oil and gas

When I think of things I was exposed to in my life that felt “wrong” or “very not normal” but I couldn’t put a finger on why two examples come to mind:
One of my dad’s work colleagues that lives in BR had a wife who couldn’t even speak English. They lived in a pretty remote part of BR with a helipad in their yard. She also had a young child that he didn’t interact with at all.
Another of my dad’s work colleagues had multiple “trophy houses”. One is 5,000 square feet filled with animals he has killed. Giraffes, Buffalo, lions... it puts Cabelas and Bass Pro to shame. Exotic hunting excursions in TX (where they hunt imported animals) are a regular part of life.
When I speak about moving away from the oil and natural gas industry, there are so many reasons why that I can’t even articulate it. The culture is hidden... unless you REALLY get in it... and it is gross.

so you want to move the state away from it;s primary employers and revenue streams because you;re jealous of other people's success?

Maybe you should work on that and get back to us when you’ve got some actual concrete thoughts and ideas.

Good God, don't ever post again.

How do these things relate? This doesn’t seem like a complete thought to me.

This state hit a freaking gold mine a few years ago with natural gas. It ain't going anywhere anytime soon.
