Louisiana special session: Failure.

Small government conservatives.

Thanks Louisiana.

Good. Maybe they’ll finally re-write the constitution so that we don’t tie-up 90% of our funding.

Planning on sending your kid to LSU on TOPS? You're fricked. frickED. Our government has ceased to govern.

While it is a shitty joke, TOPS shouldn't be held up as the standard for governing. TOPS is a Bernie-ish luxury, and we are a poor and low-tax state

You are blaming conservatives when the Dems wanted to tax us all into lower net income brackets? frick off.

---

lol that you think both aren’t responsible.

Sounds like the government just did you a favor. Maybe now instead of pinching pennies to send your kid to an overpriced devalued degree mill for 4 years, you'll send them to get a welding certificate so they can earn more with no debt.

What a concept.

This is no surprise. We've learned to accept failure in Louisiana.

Naw man. $300 million ain't that much when the objective is to build an educated, trained workforce. To lift people to a higher station. it's not that much at all.

The people in this state can't even agree on whether this is a good investment or not. We are doomed.

---

They've beaten that dead horse of an idea for over 50 years now. Thrown tax money after "building an educated workforce" for decade after decade. Zero return on the investment. Insanity is repeating the same actions and expecting a different result.

If we as a state want things to change then we have to change things and not keep doing the same thing over and over.

P.S.
You can't lift people to a higher station that don't want to be lifted. They are too content to float along soaking up the freebies and staying stuck in the mud.

Pay for it yourself. Big deal.

House Republican leaders favor sales taxes, while Democrats, particularly the Black Caucus, prefer income taxes.

Both of these groups can frick off.

Heard the Legislative Black Caucus got PO’d because they-being the hardcore Republicans-tied the tax to Medicare reform. But in reality, it’s a bunch of hyperventilating children.

They’re arguing over what should be pointless. What keeps them in office is the arguing and, “the other,” that they blame everything on while avoiding the need to structurally reform our form of government via Constitutional Convention.

They’re ignoring the forest for the sake of the tree, and our media has less vision than even they do. It’s sad, really...
