If Cane's and Walk On's were still keeping the bulk of their operations here....south Louisiana would have built a solid community of people in the restaurant and franchising industry.
It’s the terrible public schools holding us back. It’s hard to recruit good corporate employees when they realize they’re going to have to shell out $10k-$15k per kid per year for a decent education.

Do they really need that many people to cut small chicken fingers in half?

No, they need that many people to count all the money.

It is an expansion of there existing footprint in Plano. Yet another reason traffic there sucks.

Thats fine. Just tell the people of the proposed changes months before you call for the constitutional convention. Stop try to hide the proposals from public view and scrutiny.

1000 jobs for Plano does nothing. It’s just another job over here.

We're way beyond blaming politicians.
It's our population. Too much lower class mentality that just destroys everything.
And to people who think I'm making some camouflaged racist comments, we have plenty of white trash and white people with LCM who have no desire to improve themselves and teach this mentality to their children.

The OT average or IRL?
This question makes a difference.

Federal government was going to pay for a streetcar from LSU to downtown, costing us not a single penny
I don't think that's correct. From what I can find, the project was supposed to total $170 million, with the hope to get between $67.5 and $84 million in federal grants.
Regardless, Broome's team canned the streetcar project in 2018 (I think that's the right year?) to focus on Bus Rapid Transit, but I don't think that ever went anywhere.
With the Water Campus and other potential development and redevelopment, that streetcar would still be something for a future, semi-functional administration to revisit.

I’m surprised there’s was a vacant office building there.
Lots of companies there have downsized office staff since Covid. BoA being a big one. Probably have had several suites open up but I’m sure they were leased again fast.
