"We got some nice letters from the folks down there telling us how much they appreciated the goods we sent"

Your state helped itself to an average take of 3.9 billion dollars from Louisiana's offshore oil and gas revenues over the past 50 years. It wasn't your oil, it wasn't your gas. It was Louisiana's coastline taking the beating and the sweat of Louisiana citizens doing all of the hard work. Your state did nothing to earn it's share of our money from our oil and gas offshore reserves. Yet, I'll bet you drive on highways and over bridges where you live that were financed in whole or in part by much of it.

Our resources have helped your state live in the modern world so you and yours could be nice and comfortable in the wintertime. Our card of thanks from you? The shaft along with pompous insults. What a class act you are Lurker.

The State of Louisiana doesn't own the Gulf of Mexico any more than Illinois owns Lake Michigan.

Hey, have you sent any more foul mouthed Freepmails to lady Freepers recently?
