Raise taxes is their only solution.

A client who is a former commissioner in Chicago, friends with Rahm Emmanuel and bundler for Obama was bitching last week that it has gotten harder to do business since Obama was elected. He has owned several "green" small companies and is down to one in Texas. the biggest disaster for him was a green energy plant in Northern CA. Being located near the state Weed Capital for decades was a big minus. Labor being high as a kite and local politicians killed it even though a byproduct was huge plus for all the weed farmers .

New Orleans is a case study in why you cannot have one party in power for too long. When was the last Republican mayor? Before Reconstruction?

Democrats nationwide have a century of doing nothing but increasing taxes when in charge. The fact the gas bros honestly thought they were voting themselves to prosperity by putting those people in charge only confirms the child like mental status of the electorate.

Well, assuming the election was fair and square, this is exactly what they voted for. Those streets and trolly tracks aren't going to maintain themselves. Trips to Vegas and stuff aren't cheap either.

The first reply in that thread is "I hate the fact that Section 8 people get to vote to raise my property taxes."

He is 100% right. Why should anyone receiving government subsidized housing get to vote on any property issue?

Anyone old enough to vote should know the democrats want to just tax and spend more.

And if the little guy over there is making too much money, up the regulations.

Remember only about 35% of property owners in Orleans Parish pay property tax.


Say what?! Is that accurate? And those 35% of people aren't threatening an armed coup over the city of NO right now?

City is half the size of the 60s

Fire 1/2 the grifters in government and cut the pay to right size it.

Infrastructure sucks despite gratis of tens of billions from the Feds for Katrina

Same incompetent fools that ruined this city for decades now have a solution again. Steal more of your $$

Great city if you are an alcoholic or obese slob. Otherwise the place sucks for permanent residents
