I met a failed mayoral candidate the other day and he said that Gary was a paid lobbyist for certain companies. That hospital that wanted to build in North Baton Rouge supposedly had given him a good chunk of change for his efforts.



That's absolutely what he told me too. Very specific details as well, no speculation.

Not sure how you can't pay tax on a business that barely generates jack shite in revenue.

BR is like a magnet for clowns:
Denise Marcelle, JBE, SWB, Gary Chambers, John Delgado, Smokey Bougeois, Bodi White, Buddy Caldwell, Jimmy Swaggart, Cleo Fields, etc.

Every city has their own Gary Chambers, and they all make money in the same way. "Working" for the city doing God knows what

Yeah.

His list, while a good one, just scratches the surface, too. If he went into all the POS legislators here during the session, it could go on all day.

He's not a registered lobbyist I don't believe, so there might be an issue there if true

Why would anyone WANT to build a hospital that may see one paying patient a year if they're lucky? The gubment doesn't reimburse for shite.



Disproportionate Share Hospital Payments + medicaid= make money

I'm not very familiar with Gary, but I'd assume that he functions like most "community organizers" in other cities. People and businesses basically pay them to be a loud mouths and organize rallys and/or resistance for their cause.

I don't know who Gary Chambers is... should I? Would anyone care to give a brief synopsis on why he is important to this board?

some baton rouge black dude who posts on facebook a lot about BLM and whatnot.

I wish this board would stop operating like a bunch of former classmates.

we don't all know who all of these people are, nor care. I only know because they fricking constantly talk about him.
