Come on user.....you know why
Very simple. Stupid inbred redneck republicans are to blame.
Not enough diversity.
New Orleans is a Democratic stronghold.
And?
N
Niggers.
too much white supremacy surely
>primary slave port
>primary slave auction houses
>slave owning mobility vacation there
>slavery ended
>niggers still there
>time
people pretend to not understand this?
Structural racism.
Purely economical factors.
It's because New Orleans is French, and has been since it's founding, and the French can't do anything right! Also Hurricanes, also niggers

Even if it were 100% white anglo-germans Big Easy would not be able to compete with the proper coasts. It's just not as important now as it was to France.
NOLA's like a 3rd world country in a lot of ways. A lot of it is due to corruption and general French incompetence. Great food and music though
The good thing about it though is that it's one of the few cities in the entire fucking US that actually has walkable streets in large areas and not murder stroads, due to it's age.
Despite having incredible amounts of natural resources and being the heart of American oil pipelines much of the land owned by the large corporations operating there are tax-exempt. This is due in part to lazy and corrupt state government giving free lunch to those oil and refining corporations who in turn give little to nothing back to Louisiana in taxes. They’re changing this in recent years because they’ve realized the giant mess they’ve made but New Orleans and Louisiana will likely remain a shithole for years to come. You can’t fix broke schools, busted roads, no hospitals, and underfunded police departments overnight.
New Orleans went to shit the moment the civil war ended, so I'm not surprised. Trade up and down the Mississippi river died a while ago, similar to how trade with the great lakes died.
Also New Orleans is a literal swamp.
yeah you just gotta be careful because you can wonder into a shitty area really quickly if you're not careful. you always gotta be aware of your surroundings in NOLA
economic reasons
Kek. So funny...
Corruption and nepotism are unparalleled in Louisiana. A handful of families runs the whole state.
I'd guess it a shut it down kind of thing.
>biggest port in western hemisphere
>can't compete
how fucking stupid are you
Kek. They admit it's because of black people but then make it about white people oppressing them even though whites are in the minority.
>It's because New Orleans is French,
this. the frogs ran it so poorly we still can't fix it.
Is that not the port of LA?
>raped by racist whites
Even if it was 100% black they would blame their poverty on a white person thinking racist thoughts somewhere else.
Every man a king
Every man a king
I envision a day where a nigger will shoot another nigger and use a legal defense in a California court blaming it on a white person thinking about killing blacks and set a new legal precedent when the judge agrees.
