This may not seem like a big deal to those who don't pay attention (and judging from the threads on this board, no one is paying attention to Louisiana politics), but this is nothing short of a disaster.
Planning on sending your kid to LSU on TOPS? You're fricked. frickED. Our government has ceased to govern.

Small government conservatives.
Thanks Louisiana.

Good. Maybe they’ll finally re-write the constitution so that we don’t tie-up 90% of our funding.

While it is a shitty joke, TOPS shouldn't be held up as the standard for governing. TOPS is a Bernie-ish luxury, and we are a poor and low-tax state

TOPS is a luxury the state can't afford to provide.

Sounds like the government just did you a favor. Maybe now instead of pinching pennies to send your kid to an overpriced devalued degree mill for 4 years, you'll send them to get a welding certificate so they can earn more with no debt.
What a concept.

This is no surprise. We've learned to accept failure in Louisiana.

No one should ever plan on TOPS being in place.

House Republican leaders favor sales taxes, while Democrats, particularly the Black Caucus, prefer income taxes.

A combination of hardcore anti tax republicans and the black caucus killed the bills. It was weird seeing them on the same side.
Going to be interesting to see how it is spun to put this all on the Republicans.

Right now Louisiana = failure

Louisiana is fricked because of JBE. The state would get 25% royalties on wells drilled in state waters. Now JBE has made it where no companies will drill because of his lawsuit.
How fricking dumb can 1 guy be?

Good. The typical people I know whose kids are on TOPS live in $300K houses and take a couple of expensive vacations a year.

I think we should go ahead and cut tops. It was nice to have but I can't use it twice and I'm not having any kids go to college any time soon

Fund medicaid at the level before Honor Code showed up and we’ll be fine.

Louisiana State Government: Failure
FIFY. Always has been, always will be. And it’s the electorate’s fault 100%
Low information, single issue or apathetic voters with 35% voter participation gets you this

Giving away free public education is unsustainable and will bankrupt the government. Who could have seen that coming? 
Louisiana deserves what they are getting right now.

When has LA ever been governed effectively?

Tell your kid to bust his arse and earn a scholarship. Academic or otherwise.
Or, dont send your kid to LSU.
People got along just fine before TOPS
