I would not be surprised if 80% of the residents of this town get "free" medical care. One of only ten "State" hospitals is here and a medical clinic that draws people from as far away as Chalmette. My wife has vending machines in both locations and I'm there almost every day, so, I get to see all that stuff first-hand. Pisses me off to no end to hear one of 'em biotch about the cost of a 20 oz. Coke and a bag of chips.....while talkin' on a $400 cell phone. The boss won't allow me to respond, and, that's probably best. If you wanna see how the 'Crats live...come to Bogalusa.
