Lived here for 3 years now. Overall I’m young with no kids so it affects my life minimally but my family from a very nice and well run town are totally blown to hear about the following issues that are so rampant:
Sewage and water board having a federal lien
Mayor having a federal lien
Catch basins having contracts but not getting cleaned
Inspectors going home for the day instead of inspecting construction sites
The list goes on. They literally could not wrap their heads around it. My brother was asking how the federal government hasn’t essentially eviscerated the NOLA city government and started it totally over.
They probably cant wrap their heads around it because it's not corruption...its incompetence.

Truth.
Now try to get liquor, gaming, or a nightclub permit. Then you need to pay the mob either directly or indirectly.
