I'm not the one who believes these people deserve what's coming to them. Take that shite up with all these "they voted for this" assholes. Especially the ones here in Louisiana, who for decades have voted for and continue to vote for environmental policies that are causing this state to wash away.

So all these coastal Louisianians who lose everything to flooding when a storm blows through, well they don't deserve the suffering and I don't want it for them, but they sure as frickin' shite voted for it.

The critique if LA is identical to inner city multigenerational impoverished folks voting for the same corrupt government hacks, again and again and again. If a demo repeatedly votes progressive, but gets regressive results in return, common sense would say it's time for a switch.


I’m reading a book about cities that was published in 1925. The author says that American elections are pretty silly because we elect the people who can essentially win popularity contests instead of people who are experts in whatever issues need to be addressed.

He also says that progress leads to unfamiliarity and therefore instability, which is why communities are so resistant to change/progress.

ETA: I mentioned when it was published because the same things are true today, 100 years later.

Sort of but not really. The location was high dollar, but the structures are typically 70%+ of the transaction value. I actually had a call with a financial planner in the area on Friday (we are buying his business) and he was talking about the net worth hit a lot of his clients were taking.

Look at the assessor's roles and the sale info on real estate in the area.

Curious… do you eat shrimp, crawfish? Do you get them yourself or go to the store? Why are you hating on fishermen? There’s a big difference in voting in Orleans parish and Terrebonne or plaquemines parish.

Because this one special interest group and the shitbag politicians that pander to them are standing in the way of meaningful coastal restoration.

The state of Louisiana is washing into the Gulf of Mexico (or soon to be America) all for the sake of those stupid fricking shrimp, oysters and whatever the frick else you mentioned in your post, and none of it is worth the damage it's causing. None of it.

So whenever I see threads like this talking about how the residents of California deserve what they voted for, well all I can say to that is so do we.

It's akin to shouting "schadenfreude" at coal miners diagnosed with black lung disease. There really is no equivalence to CA millionaires with a range of choices at all.

Is it only me or do you all find it odd that most of the trees in these burned-down neighborhoods appear unaffected by these forest fires?

I think the income level between Hollywood and multimillion dollar houses and fisherman in south Louisiana on two different levels.

That isn't what this is about. It's about what we all vote for and the consequences of that vote. This board likes to shite on other regions or states that "deserve what they voted for". Well we can be lumped right in there with the rest of them.

California special interests have resulted in a disaster. Louisiana special interests have done the same. Every time a hurricane blows through and floods Boudreau's house, to follow this board's logic, the motherfricker voted for it and has it coming.

Because of Boudreau and his bayou ilk, the state of Louisiana is washing away. Legit washing away. Because Boudreau wants his oyster beds, the rest of the state can’t have coastal restoration. We just have to watch the disaster unfold.

None of this has to do with an income discrepancy between Californians and Louisianians, but so what it it did? The state is washing away.

The US taxpayer IMHO will indeed be bailing out/footing the bill however you want to put it. That's my opinion.

Coonass isn't a race. It’s Louisiana's version of white trash. Coonass is to Louisiana what hillbilly is to Arkansas and redneck is to Mississippi. Same three twinkies only rebranded. Every single thing that's causing the state of Louisiana to wash away has been voted for and continues to be voted for. Should anyone feel sorry for us? Every single whitebooted, bayou mud duck that cries in his milk when a storm blows through and washes away his home. Should we wag our finger at him for what he voted for? Because I can promise you, he voted for it.


Jesus Christ. Talk about trying too hard lol
