LABI's response
Now LABI is obviously a biased source, but so is your original source.
So ITEP really only is an issue in about a dozen parishes. At a very minimum, ITEP could only explain why those parishes are poor.
BUT wait! It turns out those 12 ITEP parishes collect more in property and sales taxes and have a higher wage than the non-ITEP parishes!
That is not even getting into how ITEP helps even the playing field on a truly messed up, anti-business tax code.
