I am not sure who brought it up but this is a forum where people exchange perspectives. I hope that answers your question. Again, Louisiana generates 3 times the revenue as Mississippi does.
It's really sad to say that most people only think of Mississippi as being that State that had a violent history during the Civil Rights Movement. I remember when I lived in Virginia, I told a co-worker/Deputy City Manager that I was driving to Louisiana for Thanksgiving and the Bayou Classic. He asked could he ride along and I told him yes. At first this dude was really excited about going to the classic, but once he realized that I would be traveling through Mississippi, he quickly changed his mind about going. By that time, all I could do was laugh, because there was no way I could change his mind about traveling through Mississippi. I even told him that Mississippi had more Black people per capita than any State in the country.
