re: How Louisiana became a tax-hiking outlier in the south

Look, if you are really opposed to tax increases, you should be blaming the legislators who failed to come up with cuts that didn't mostly focus on education and healthcare. I'd agree that there is room for some cuts, but only cutting those areas is a recipe for keeping the state dead last.

Cutting those areas of spending in order to lower taxes was given a fair try under Jindal and did not help the state at all.
