A place where the life expectancy is the lowest in the country, the education is the worst, the infrastructure is the most outdated, and the likelihood of natural disaster is the highest. Don't call it a shit hole if that offends your sensibilities but it's definitely not a place most people want to live, and the fact that some select places can get by on $15 an hour doesn't mean it's a livable wage for the rest of the country.Also the minimum wage in Louisiana is $7.25/hr., just to be clear. And the largest employer is Walmart. So your average retail/service worker would be making way less than the amount of money that was already below the state's paltry median income. --- "I read somewhere the Sun will explode one day; A giant to swallow the world But you look so beautiful and so bright to this cold girl" -Freezepop ...
