Reduced price of oil hurts state's revenue

Louisiana is one of those oil producing states that is in a financial bind because of the drop in the price of oil.
 We are looking at a possible increase in taxes, cuts in some departments, or both.

Regardless, some change is inevitable in the TOPS program, Costing near  235 million dollars now, it is on the way to around 400 million.

A program I favor abolishing, is benefits to film makers.  I do not favor paying a company to make a film in the state.
