We will have a chance to vote for Edwards again in 2027.There is a reason he was elected governor three times. Yes.... he used his position to often enrich himself, but the truth is he was actually a good governor. Yeah... you had to tolerate some of his questionable behavior... but when he was governor... the state was run well. Things got done... he really cared about the poor and middle class, while at the same time balancing business interests.
I don't want to start a political thread here, but if Edwin Edwards rose from the dead and ran for Governor... I would vote for him. IN fact, his dead body would be better than what we have now. I believe one of the reasons why Jon Bel Edwards served two terms as governor was because the name "Edwards" (even though Jon Bel was not related, as I'm sure you know) still carries a lot of pollical clout.
Truth is I'm pretty sure I will not be in Louisiana in 2027. Our current governor is an idiot. Myopically focused on his social conservative base. As a business owner in this state I will say that my biggest problem is my rising insurance rates, rising property tax rates, rising crime rates, my inability to find educated and trained staff to do the work that I expect. I can't get people to move here because anyone that comes here has to figure out a way to pay for the education of their children since our public schools just suck. Nothing is being done about any of this.We will have a chance to vote for Edwards again in 2027.
St. Tammany Parish has good schools, but point well taken - the only folks that are OK with the Incel-breeding environment known as same-sex Catholic schools are willing to put up with it, and most folks in the country aren't. Insurance rates are rising everywhere (look at Florida!), so there is no way out of that (i.e., tornadoes in Iowa in December ) without going somewhere where water is scarce (NOTE: New, certified-fortified construction will keep the rates down). Louisiana has always been a tough place to draw in professional folks, but there certainly are enough natives that would take such jobs, but employers want the purple squirrels.Truth is I'm pretty sure I will not be in Louisiana in 2027.

Personally I don't give a flying fvck about any social conservative issues... I care that I'm spending more and more to operate my business, and my personal cost of living is going through the roof, while my margins narrow. We went thought this with Jindal... I guess 8 years of reasonable balanced leadership we got with Jon Bel was just too much for social conservatives... so now we are back to stupid.
I was in Orleans Parish until I just couldn't take it anymore... the constant fighting with the NOS&WB and Entergy-Orleans is just soul sucking. My kids never went to public schools, they went to private school... mostly because I went to Public schools in Jefferson Parish and the only thing I learned was how to fight (and this was over 40 years ago... it's much worst now). When my parents finally put me in private school (sixth grade) I was at least two years behind and had to take Summer and after school tutoring to get caught up.St. Tammany Parish has good schools, but point well taken - the only folks that are OK with the Incel-breeding environment known as same-sex Catholic schools are willing to put up with it, and most folks in the country aren't.

Never try to read a woman's mind. It is a scary place. Ignore her confusing signals and mixed messages. Assume she is interested in you and act accordingly.
