But a common criticism is that most of the South (particularly LA and MS) are poor states. This is exacerbated by the fact that they are Republican and should have plenty free commerce and big business

La and Ms are very recently “red states”. Both are very socially conservative but fiscally liberal.
As for your examples of Atlanta and Huntsville, you can also throw in Charlotte, Nashville, greenville (Sc). You have no one to blame but the incompetent leadership that engulfed Baton Rouge and Nola for decades.
After all Nola has about what 100+ years on many of these other cities cities? Pretty pathetic it’s current situation and how it can’t take off.

All 3 run by democrat mayors for the past century, with the exception of BR in the 90’s.

You can throw in Alabama, where Republicans have only controlled both houses of the legislature for 7 years out of the last 150.

Biggest lie of all on TD.

Look at demos, see the percentages, then tell me what's the difference between states like LA, MS and the northern states.
