Think about how many of those 10,000 new jobs would come from (1) high quality people from other states and (2) high quality people who WOULD HAVE LEFT the state to have better opportunities!!!
IMO, this would truly SAVE Northwest LA (especially Shreveport, as I have grave concerns over its future). When you consider the prospects of I69, the Port, and this Cyber Command Center things could really start looking up!
The good news is that I'm hearing it's almost a done deal. The bad news is that we are in Louisiana and our politicians in BR will find a way to screw it up -- especially since it isn't in South LA.
