#1 Being a former resident of Louisiana, with a large family still living there, I hope this guy wins. There are a lot of reasons there are few jobs in Louisiana. One of the prime reasons is the fact that Louisiana is the only state in the Union that has a government more closely aligned with Napoleanic law than English Common Law. It hurts in too many ways to document here. Another problem is people: Louisiana is home to more than seventy ethnic groups that all want their history, culture, and religion to be prominent in the state. Finally, there's just too much water! One-third of the state is either under water all the time, or subject to seasonal floods. The state is abundantly endowed with natural resources, but between politics, religion, and nature, life can be a real bear there.
