We spending more than we bringing in. Oil is our gravy train, and the train is running slow. TOPS is welfare sorta, but shoulda been safe from cuts if it truly comes from the lottery. They were supposed to give teachers raises from that lottery money too. If they have to cut education, the first thing they should do is start getting rid of all these universities we got. We have way too many. Grambling, Southern, LSUA, Northwestern, etc. could all go and then no matter where you lived in the state, you would be within 75 miles of a university.
McNeese too while we are at it. Got ULL right down the road
