you’re asking why 8 figures of taxpayer money going to fund and prop up a private venture that would otherwise not be viable is considered bad?

They thought building the brew pub would get them a new parking garage.

It’s fitting that this thing is on Huey P. Long Ave, because the amount of corruption and grift in Gretna and Jefferson Parish rivals that of any other place in Louisiana. They’re just more discreet about it.

All this. My race car shop was on Huey P Long back in the day. We were lucky because most of us were from there and were tight with GPD and the judges so no one messed with us. But it's bad.

Think it is referencing the Port Orleans brewpub they want to build on the city's dime.

Of all local breweries Port Orleans should be paying their own way for this bullshite.
