Lafayette is Jindal country. We can't support him any more than we do already. Unless...unless, he could possibly use even more money. ...Never mind. - rambeaux rawlings Tue, 31 May 2011 15:22:07 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8394-potential-lafayette-project-jeopardized-by-megafund-raid#comment-18193 Sorry, J_Taxpayer. We did not vote the tax & spend liberals out of LA government. Many of them just switched parties in an attempt to fool the voting public. It'll probably work. - RCajunrunner Sun, 29 May 2011 11:51:21 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8394-potential-lafayette-project-jeopardized-by-megafund-raid#comment-18189 Maybe if Louisiana had a business friendly tax code we would not need to bribe business to keep them from leaving and going to states that do have a business friendly tax code, i.e TX & AZ. We may have voted the tax & spend libs out of LA government, but the new guys have yet to fix the problem. - J_Taxpayer Sat, 28 May 2011 20:45:26 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8394-potential-lafayette-project-jeopardized-by-megafund-raid#comment-18163 I think it's just pure bullshit. "give us a bunch of money, we'll go talk to these companies 'considering' moving to Louisiana. what, how MANY jobs...well, aaaahhhhhh, 25,000 jobs. Yeah, that's it." "don't worry, WE'LL negotiate FOR you. just give us some money. TRUST US!!! It's all for 'economic development'." Please. Don't insult my intelligence. - ragin_cajun Fri, 27 May 2011 21:22:16 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8394-potential-lafayette-project-jeopardized-by-megafund-raid#comment-18150 Mr. Melancon in correct. Unfortunately, business interests now enjoy bidding wars among the states to see how much they can get in order to locate in a particular area. It is nothing more than government bribing them with "corporate welfare". - IMJacquemo Fri, 27 May 2011 18:20:03 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8394-potential-lafayette-project-jeopardized-by-megafund-raid#comment-18149 THIS is called pay back Jindal siding with the Birthers,and Vitter blocking Salazars raise dont expect much from Washington with our current Govenor in place. - neutral party Fri, 27 May 2011 18:02:38 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8394-potential-lafayette-project-jeopardized-by-megafund-raid#comment-18144 "Raiding the Mega-Fund is a declaration of war on job creation in Louisiana." ------------------- The only way government "creates" jobs is to take money from one person and give it to another. It looks good but the guy whose pocket is picked is now poorer. Some much for progress. - James Melancon Fri, 27 May 2011 17:15:53 +0100
