I suggest to him that when Louisiana residents send their hard earned tax dollars to washington they expect as does every American to receive what they pay for. If the rest of the country is not interested in returning our tax dollars as required then don't accept them. We will gladly keep our tax dollars here and take care of our own problems without federal oversight and corruption. Louisiana has the #1 port system in the world, supplies fully 1/3 of the nations energy supply, is one of the nations largest seafood producer, and #1 football team in the nation LSU. This nation went to France to purchase NEW ORLEANS because of it's national importance. The rest was lagnaippe.

Everyone is quick to blame the President and the Corps of Engineers, but it takes dollars and lots of them to keep the levies in good order. Lets put some of the blame where it belongs and that is with the New Orleans and Louisana governments. Corruption runs closer to home as well!!
