Get rid of hipsters
The hipsters could be part of what saves the city if they wouldn't vote for such far left policy makers. Hipsters usually bring tech or other higher paying jobs and/or have high disposable income. Those are the things the city needs.
Kingbob's list pretty much nailed it. Someone who ran on that platform would have 0% chance at winning, but it would save the city.
It's such a shame NOLA, and the state at large, is too dumb to get out of it's own way.

In my experience with living in Nola for a few years, there seems to be a lot of people to move here from out of state and immediately begin being "God's chosen New Orleans-ians" because they think New Orleans is all about bohemian nonsense and "progressivism" and they complain about all of the Louisiana related aspects that impact New Orleans and they vote like where they came from.

We've been hearing about this tech crap for years; Gameloft, GE... I can't even remember all the BS ribbon cuttings that have happened over the years.
New Orleans has a Congressman with a degree in computer science who's very high up in the leadership of his party.
And yet, if you look at the "tech scene" in NOLA, it's basically the same half-dozen people giving each other innovation awards every year.
The "tech" ship has sailed. I can't quite put my finger on why, but it ain't happening.
Could be the fact that NOLA attracts a stupider variety of hipster than other places.
