I feel at least half the college graduates in louisiana leave for Texas. How do you expect to get your stuff together when your best and brightest are leaving the state and leaving you with baw baw and Jamal?

I graduated from SLU in 2012. Left for Texas last year.

My reason was to get a better job, drive on better roads, not pay income tax and to have an overall better quality of life. Less rfif-raff and people are much nicer.

Louisiana should copy the policies of Texas

Yet JBE wants to copy policies of California.

Don't people in Louisiana have any state pride? Don't want to build that at home?

Louisiana is like West Virginia. Putting all of your economic eggs in one little basket just isn't too bright.

It's easier to climb the corporate ladder when you just work with local dumbasses
