I was speaking with a good friend having a specific stake in the way and manner Louisiana conducts business. He’s been planning on building a refinery one day in the company of other fiscally and economically prolific businessmen. He said he’d like to create this economic force of nature in Louisiana but it appeared he’d be going to Texas if the economic growth program in Louisiana didn’t become more business friendly. He said he wanted Louisiana to negate personal income taxes and extra taxes on businesses. Taxes make creating jobs and growing industry nearly impossible.
