Well, we could start by not shipping 80% of all the grain in the Midwest via the Port of New Orleans. Frankly, without the Port, is there even a reason for New Orleans to exist?

Good Point. I failed to mention the importance of our Port, the fifth largest in the World! Thank you for bringing another N.O.'s asset to the fore.

This might be what you'll want to consider when we start taxing it at the port of New Orleans. Only one problem. Where you gonna ship it? BTW, We're here to help.
