THE THINGS IN THAT WE HAVE TO DO.

07:53.600 --> 07:55.567 position:46.43% line:79.33% size:7.14%

SURVEY DEADLINE THAT HAS PADS, THE APPLICATION.

08:07.033 --> 08:11.900 position:32.44% line:79.33% size:35.11%
THAT DEADLINE HAS NOT PASSED BUT WILL AT SOME POINT

08:12.033 --> 08:16.533 position:38.04% line:79.33% size:23.92%
THAT'S CORRECT. WE SET JULY 20 FOR THE SURVEY

08:16.667 --> 08:18.533 position:40.84% line:79.33% size:18.33%

08:55.400 --> 08:58.567 position:40.84% line:79.33% size:18.33%
AMAZINGLY. IF YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT,

08:58.700 --> 09:01.333 position:34.31% line:79.33% size:31.39%
YOU KNOW HOW DIFFICULT IT IS. YOU KNOW FIRSTHAND.

09:01.467 --> 09:07.033 position:27.78% line:79.33% size:44.44%
THERE ARE LOTS OF FOLKS OUT THERE -- WE ARE GLAD WE HAVE

09:57.967 --> 10:01.100 position:48.3% line:79.33% size:3.41%
WHY IT CAN MAKE SUCH A BIG IMPACT.

10:01.233 --> 10:05.933 position:23.12% line:79.33% size:53.77%
LOUISIANA RECIPIENTLY SCORED POORLY ON A NATIONAL REPORT THAT

10:06.067 --> 10:09.300 position:25.91% line:79.33% size:48.17%
LOOKS AT CHILD WELL BEING. EARLY EDUCATION IS A KEY WAY TO

10:09.433 --> 10:15.800 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
IMPROVE THOSE MEASURES. 49th OVERALL, 50th IN ECONOMIC

10:19.800 --> 10:24.800 position:22.19% line:79.33% size:55.63%
EVERY YEAR THE ANNIE E. CASEY FOUNDATION COMPILES MEASUREMENTS

10:24.933 --> 10:29.233 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%

10:32.500 --> 10:35.967 position:35.24% line:79.33% size:29.52%
THAT HELPS THE COUNT. IT IS AN EFFORT TO LOOK AT

10:36.133 --> 10:40.467 position:25.91% line:79.33% size:48.17%
DATA AT THE STATE AND LOCAL LEVELS TO SEE HOW ALL CHILDREN

10:40.600 --> 10:46.300 position:45.5% line:79.33% size:9%
ARE DOING ACROSS AGES AND WELL BEING.

HIGH HOUSING COST. OUR STATE'S EDUCATION

11:14.933 --> 11:17.967 position:28.71% line:79.33% size:42.58%
RANKINGS HAVE IMPROVED. SOME OF THE F OF THE LARGEST OF

11:18.100 --> 11:21.833 position:49.23% line:79.33% size:1.55%
ANY STATE, BUT WE ARE FAR BEHIND.

11:21.967 --> 11:25.933 position:27.78% line:79.33% size:44.44%
8% MORE FOURTH GRADERS ARE PROFICIENT READERS THAN 2010,

11:26.067 --> 11:29.633 position:23.12% line:79.33% size:53.77%

11:29.767 --> 11:34.700 position:40.84% line:79.33% size:18.33%
THAT IS CRITICAL. AT FOURTH GRADE KIDS ARE

11:34.833 --> 11:37.600 position:26.85% line:79.33% size:46.3%
MAKING THE TRANSITION FROM LEARNING TO READ FROM LEARNING

11:37.733 --> 11:39.867 position:45.5% line:79.33% size:9%
TO READ. IF YOU ARE NOT PROFICIENT IN

DIRECTION. WE ARE STILL CONTINUING TO SEE

11:51.433 --> 11:53.600 position:30.58% line:79.33% size:38.84%
HUGE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PERFORMANCE OF HIGHER INCOME

11:53.733 --> 11:59.467 position:24.98% line:79.33% size:50.03%
KIDS AND LOWER INCOME KIDS. ONE OF THE DRIVERS THERE IS OUR

11:59.600 --> 12:04.733 position:38.04% line:79.33% size:23.92%
RATE OF PERCENTAGE OF KIDS WHO ARE UNINSURED.

12:04.867 --> 12:11.233 position:30.58% line:79.33% size:38.84%
THAT RATE HAS DECLINED FROM 6% IN 2010 TO 3% IN 2017.

12:11.367 --> 12:15.133 position:27.78% line:79.33% size:44.44%
90% OF LOUISIANA KIDS ARE COVERED BY SOME FORM OF HEALTH

12:15.300 --> 12:16.900 position:44.56% line:79.33% size:10.87%
INSURANCE. THAT ECONOMIC NUMBER HAS TO

12:17.067 --> 12:20.433 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
BE IMPROVED AND OTHER INTD OKAYTORS WILL RISE WITH IT.

12:20.567 --> 12:25.600 position:27.78% line:79.33% size:44.44%
KIDS ARE MOST LIKELY TO EXPERIENCE POVERTY WHEN THEY ARE

12:25.733 --> 12:29.267 position:30.58% line:79.33% size:38.84%
YOUNGEST AND MOST VULNERABLE TO THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS.

12:29.400 --> 12:34.000 position:26.85% line:79.33% size:46.3%
WHAT THING COULD WE DO TO IMPROVE CHILD WELL BEING, FOCUS

12:34.133 --> 12:40.233 position:24.05% line:79.33% size:51.9%
ON CHILD POVERTY RATE AND GET MORE PARENTS CONNECTED TO HIGH

12:40.367 --> 12:45.500 position:40.84% line:79.33% size:18.33%
QUALITY JOBS. 30% LIVE IN POVERTY, TWISHDS

LOUISIANA POLICY INSTITUTE FOR CHILDREN.

12:57.833 --> 13:02.967 position:22.19% line:79.33% size:55.63%
HER GROUP STUDIED HOW LIMITED ACCESS TO CHILD CARE AFFECTS THE

13:03.100 --> 13:05.333 position:42.7% line:79.33% size:14.6%
STATE'S ECONOMY. THEY ARE GETTING FIRED.

13:05.467 --> 13:07.067 position:22.96% line:84.67% size:54.09%
MISSING WORK. TURNOVER RATES.

13:07.200 --> 13:12.367 position:25.91% line:79.33% size:48.17%
IT COSTS LOUISIANA EMPLOYERS $800 MILLION BECAUSE OF CHILD

13:12.500 --> 13:14.733 position:49.23% line:79.33% size:1.55%
CARE BREAKDOWNS OF THEIR WORKERS.

13:14.867 --> 13:19.167 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
IF PARENTS CAN GET BACK TO WORK AND CHILDREN CAN BE IN

13:19.300 --> 13:23.200 position:21.25% line:79.33% size:57.5%
QUALITY CHILD CARE PROGRAMS IT CAN BE A TWO-GENERATION SOLUTION

13:23.367 --> 13:27.367 position:37.1% line:79.33% size:25.79%
TO LOUISIANA'S POVERTY PROBLEMS, BRONSON SAID.

13:27.500 --> 13:32.533 position:28.71% line:79.33% size:42.58%
THE SCIENCE IS CLEAR THE BRAIN IS BUILT FROM THE BOTTOM

13:32.667 --> 13:35.633 position:46.43% line:79.33% size:7.14%
UP. 80% HAPPENS FROM BIRTH TO AGE 3.

13:35.767 --> 13:38.700 position:35.24% line:79.33% size:29.52%
30% OF CHILDREN ARE STARTING KINDERGARTEN HINTD.

13:38.833 --> 13:41.733 position:31.51% line:79.33% size:36.98%
THE REASON WE HAVE SO MANY CHILDREN STARTING BEHIND.

13:41.867 --> 13:46.933 position:38.97% line:79.33% size:22.06%
IT IS VERY OBVIOUS. WE INVEST LESS THAN AS A

13:47.067 --> 13:52.067 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
STATE .5% OF OUR STATE GENERAL FUNDS ON EARLY CARE AND

13:52.200 --> 13:54.767 position:49.23% line:79.33% size:1.55%
EDUCATION. YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW.

13:54.900 --> 13:59.533 position:28.71% line:79.33% size:42.58%
IN THE STATE DOESN'T INVEST EARLY IT SPENDS MORE LATER.

13:59.667 --> 14:03.367 position:26.85% line:79.33% size:46.3%
IF A CHILD STARTS KINDERGARTEN BEHIND, SHE IS MORE LIKELY

14:03.500 --> 14:05.433 position:36.17% line:79.33% size:27.66%
NEEDING MORE ATTENTION IN THE EDUCATION SYSTEM.

14:05.567 --> 14:09.700 position:24.05% line:79.33% size:51.9%
THEN IS MORE LIKELY TO END UP IN BEING HELD BACK A GRADE AND

14:09.833 --> 14:14.567 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
THEN IS MORE LIKELY TO NOT GRADUATE ON TIME OR AT ALL.

14:14.700 --> 14:17.800 position:26.85% line:79.33% size:46.3%
AND THEN LIKELY TO END UP IN THE JUVENILE JUSTICE SYSTEM.

14:17.933 --> 14:25.033 position:24.05% line:79.33% size:51.9%
THE INVESTMENT, THE COST THAT WE SPEND ON THE BACK END IS SO

14:25.167 --> 14:26.733 position:49.23% line:79.33% size:1.55%
GREAT. THE STATE'S POLICY CHOICES

14:26.867 --> 14:28.567 position:49.23% line:79.33% size:1.55%
HAVE NOT REFLECTED THAT RESEARCH.

14:28.700 --> 14:35.967 position:31.51% line:79.33% size:36.98%
IT IS ONLY 15% OF CHILDREN BIRTH TO 3 CAN ACCESS ANY

14:36.100 --> 14:39.933 position:28.71% line:79.33% size:42.58%
PUBLICLY FUNDED PROGRAM. ANY PROGRAM WE HAVE, THE CHILD

14:40.067 --> 14:43.567 position:24.05% line:79.33% size:51.9%
SCARE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM WE HAVE CUT THAT FROM SOIING ALMOST

14:43.700 --> 14:49.433 position:24.98% line:79.33% size:50.03%
40,000 KIDS 10 YEARS AGO TO 15,000 KIDS TODAY AND WE HAVE A

14:49.567 --> 14:53.133 position:31.51% line:79.33% size:36.98%
WAITING LIST OF 5,000 KIDS TO GET INTO THAT PROGRAM.

14:53.267 --> 14:55.933 position:41.77% line:79.33% size:16.47%
IS SITUATION IS BRIGHTER FOR 4-YEAR-OLDS.

14:56.067 --> 15:01.200 position:27.78% line:79.33% size:44.44%
WE ARE DOING A GOOD JOB SERVING OUR AT-RISK 4-YEAR-OLDS.

15:01.333 --> 15:05.433 position:48.3% line:79.33% size:3.41%
GREAT PRE-K PROGRAM, HIGH QUALITY.

15:05.567 --> 15:10.933 position:22.19% line:79.33% size:55.63%
90% OF HIGH RISK 4-YEAR-OLDS CAN ACT AS IF THEY CHOOSE A PRE-K

15:11.067 --> 15:14.000 position:23.12% line:79.33% size:53.77%
PROGRAM ACROSS THE@b@b■■ STATE. THE LEGISLATURE AGREED TO

15:14.133 --> 15:16.733 position:37.1% line:79.33% size:25.79%
MAKE EARLY CARE AND EDUCATION MORE ACCESSIBLE.

15:16.867 --> 15:20.533 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
IT CAN BE UNAFFORDABLE EVEN FOR MIDDLE CLASS FAMILIES.

15:20.667 --> 15:22.967 position:42.7% line:79.33% size:14.6%
THAT IS GOING BE A HUGE AMOUNT OF MONEY.

15:23.100 --> 15:25.167 position:42.7% line:79.33% size:14.6%
WE ARE NOT GOING TO ACHIEVE IT TOMORROW.

15:25.300 --> 15:31.533 position:22.19% line:79.33% size:55.63%
YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO GET THERE UNLESS WE INCREASE BY 20% THE

15:31.667 --> 15:34.000 position:49.23% line:79.33% size:1.55%
ACCESS AND THEN 20% AND THEN 20%.

15:34.133 --> 15:39.233 position:25.91% line:79.33% size:48.17%
AND THEN STEP BY STEP, MAYBE LOUISIANA WILL ADVANCE IN THE

15:39.367 --> 15:40.967 position:44.56% line:79.33% size:10.87%
RANKINGS. NEXT WEEK A VISIT WITH STATE

15:41.100 --> 15:42.833 position:45.5% line:79.33% size:9%
SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS JOHN WHITE.

15:42.967 --> 15:50.067 position:21.09% line:84.67% size:57.81%
WE LOOK FORWARD TO THAT, KELLY.

15:50.200 --> 15:54.567 position:38.97% line:79.33% size:22.06%
THANKS SO MUCH. THIS WEEKEND WAS SUPPOSED TO

15:54.700 --> 15:58.100 position:25.91% line:79.33% size:48.17%
BE THE TIME FOR PARENTS TO GET A LITTLE DISCOUNT ON SCHOOL

15:58.233 --> 16:01.900 position:32.44% line:79.33% size:35.11%
SUPPLIES FOR THE UPCOMING YEAR. NO STATE SALES TAX.

16:02.033 --> 16:06.500 position:22.19% line:79.33% size:55.63%
BUT WHEN LAWMAKERS FINALIZED THE BUDGET, THEY ACCIDENTALLY GOT

16:06.633 --> 16:09.767 position:33.38% line:79.33% size:33.25%
RID OF SALES TAX FREE WEEKEND. SO KELLY, WHAT NOW?

16:09.933 --> 16:14.767 position:24.05% line:79.33% size:51.9%
WELL, ANDRE, LAWMAKERS COULD BRING A BILL NEXT YEAR TO BRING

16:14.900 --> 16:18.533 position:26.85% line:79.33% size:46.3%
THESE TAX FREE WEEKENDS BACK. WE SPOKE WITH ROBERT TRAVIS

16:18.667 --> 16:22.500 position:24.05% line:79.33% size:51.9%
SCOTT FROM THE RESEARCH COUNCIL ABOUT OTHER REFORMS THAT ARE

16:22.633 --> 16:25.433 position:38.04% line:79.33% size:23.92%
MORE PRESSING. CAN YOU TELL US WHY WE ARE NOT

16:25.567 --> 16:27.267 position:42.7% line:79.33% size:14.6%
HAVING A SALES TAX HOLIDAY THIS WEEKEND?

16:27.400 --> 16:30.967 position:27.78% line:79.33% size:44.44%
SO WHAT HAPPENED IN THIS LEGISLATIVE SESSION IS THEY SET

16:31.100 --> 16:36.567 position:24.98% line:79.33% size:50.03%
THE STATE SALES TAX AT 4.45%. AND THEN THEY SAID HERE'S THE

16:36.700 --> 16:40.833 position:41.77% line:79.33% size:16.47%
LIST OF THE EXEMPTIONS THAT YOU CAN TAKE.

16:40.967 --> 16:46.367 position:32.44% line:79.33% size:35.11%
THERE ARE 109 OF THEM. IF YOU ARE NOT IN THAT LIST,

16:46.500 --> 16:49.867 position:22.19% line:79.33% size:55.63%
THAT EXEMPTION IS GOING TO BE SUSPENDED AS LONG AS THIS LAW IS

16:50.000 --> 16:51.967 position:44.56% line:79.33% size:10.87%
ENFORCED. WELL, THE SALES TAX HOLIDAYS

16:52.100 --> 16:57.433 position:34.31% line:79.33% size:31.39%
WEREN'T ON THE LIST. IS IT GOOD OR BAD TAX POLICY

16:57.567 --> 17:00.800 position:26.85% line:79.33% size:46.3%
TO HAVE A WEEKEND WHERE THE STATE IS NOT COLLECTING SALES

17:00.933 --> 17:02.767 position:48.3% line:79.33% size:3.41%
TAX? I THINK SOMETIMES PEOPLE FOOL

17:02.900 --> 17:06.333 position:25.91% line:79.33% size:48.17%
THEMSELVES A LITTLE BIT INTO THINKING I'M GETTING A BETTER

17:06.467 --> 17:08.067 position:47.36% line:79.33% size:5.28%
DEAL. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT SALE

17:08.200 --> 17:11.367 position:35.24% line:79.33% size:29.52%
WOULD HAVE BEEN. IF IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A STEEPER

17:11.500 --> 17:13.300 position:43.63% line:79.33% size:12.73%
SALE DISCOUNT THAN IT WAS THAT WEEKEND.

17:13.433 --> 17:17.833 position:34.31% line:79.33% size:31.39%
IT IS HARD TO KNOW. BUT AS FAR AS TAX POLICY, THE

17:17.967 --> 17:23.133 position:21.25% line:79.33% size:57.5%
PROBLEM IS THE MORE EXEMPTIONS YOU HAVE THAT YOU -- THAT REALLY

17:23.267 --> 17:27.800 position:22.19% line:79.33% size:55.63%
ARE NOT REALLY UNNECESSARY, THEN THE MORE PRESSURE THERE IS TO

17:27.933 --> 17:30.933 position:40.84% line:79.33% size:18.33%
HAVE A HIGHER RATE ON YOUR SALES TAX RATE.

17:31.067 --> 17:36.000 position:24.98% line:79.33% size:50.03%
THAT IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT. THERE ARE KIND OF SOME BIGGER

17:36.133 --> 17:38.867 position:41.77% line:79.33% size:16.47%
ISSUES WITH LOUISIANA'S SALES TAX SYSTEM.

17:39.000 --> 17:42.400 position:22.19% line:79.33% size:55.63%
OUR WHOLE SALES TAX SYSTEM IS ONE OF THE WORST IN THE COUNTRY.

17:42.533 --> 17:46.700 position:27.78% line:79.33% size:44.44%
THAT IS PARTLY BECAUSE OF THE HUGE NUMBER OF EXEMPTIONS.

17:46.833 --> 17:52.800 position:44.72% line:74% size:10.55%
IT IS PARTLY BECAUSE OF THE LACK OFú1ú3v[ UNIFORMITY ANDé■÷; WHA

17:52.933 --> 17:55.467 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
WE PLACE ON EACH ONE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE LOCAL

17:55.600 --> 18:06.467 position:35.24% line:79.33% size:29.52%
RATE AND STATE RATE AND WHAT WE APPLY THOSE TWO.

18:06.600 --> 18:11.933 position:23.12% line:79.33% size:53.77%
THE DECENTRALIZED, THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARE ARE IN CHARGE OF

18:12.067 --> 18:15.333 position:36.17% line:79.33% size:27.66%
SALES TAX COLLECTION. AS LAWMAKERS WERE RUNNING

18:15.467 --> 18:18.733 position:20.32% line:79.33% size:59.36%
AROUND TRYING TO DECIDE HOW MUCH MONEY THEY NEEDED TO RAISE, THE

18:18.867 --> 18:20.933 position:38.97% line:79.33% size:22.06%
U.S. SUPREME COURT CAME OUT WITH A DECISION.

18:21.067 --> 18:25.500 position:45.5% line:79.33% size:9%
IT IS KNOWN AS THE WAY FAIR DECISION.

18:25.633 --> 18:29.267 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
IT WENT TO COURT WITH SOUTH DAKOTA TO TRY TO DETERMINE

18:29.400 --> 18:34.600 position:49.39% line:74% size:1.22%
WHETHER OR NOT SALES TAXES COULD BE COLLECTED THERE, EVEN IF THEY

18:34.733 --> 18:37.233 position:37.1% line:79.33% size:25.79%
DIDN'T HAVE A FISCAL PRESENCE IN SOUTH DAKOTA.

18:37.367 --> 18:40.733 position:24.98% line:79.33% size:50.03%
WHAT THE WAY FAIR DECISION DID BY THE SUPREME COURT SAID IT

18:40.867 --> 18:46.933 position:24.98% line:79.33% size:50.03%
DOESN'T HAVE TO BE A PHYSICAL PRESENTATION TO COLLECT SALES

18:47.067 --> 18:50.667 position:20.16% line:84.67% size:59.68%
TAX. IF YOU HAVE A SAAB STAN SHL

18:50.800 --> 18:52.300 position:43.63% line:79.33% size:12.73%
VIRTUAL PRESENTATION THAT CAN BE ENOUGH

18:52.433 --> 18:55.767 position:25.91% line:79.33% size:48.17%
THE LOCAL AND STATE TAXING DIFFERENT THINGS AND THE LOCALS

18:55.900 --> 19:01.533 position:22.19% line:79.33% size:55.63%
BEING MORE OF THE AUTHORITY IN COLLECTION ARE TWO POLIIES THAT

19:01.667 --> 19:05.600 position:37.1% line:79.33% size:25.79%
SET LOUISIANA BACK. THE SUPREME COURT DECISION

19:05.733 --> 19:12.700 position:24.98% line:79.33% size:50.03%
SAID THAT, WELL, WE LIKE SOUTH DAKOTA'S CENTRALIZED SYSTEM.

19:12.833 --> 19:16.567 position:26.85% line:79.33% size:46.3%
THAT IS ONE OF THE REASONS WE THINK THAT THE SOUTH DAKOTA

19:16.700 --> 19:21.867 position:24.05% line:79.33% size:51.9%
SYSTEM DOES NOT VIOLATE THE CLAUSE, NOT PLACING UNDUE BURDEN

19:22.000 --> 19:24.633 position:42.7% line:79.33% size:14.6%
ON BUSINESSES TO DO INTERSTATE COMMERCE.

19:24.767 --> 19:26.567 position:38.97% line:79.33% size:22.06%
LOUISIANA DOESN'T HAVE A CENTRALIZED SYSTEM.

19:26.700 --> 19:30.800 position:23.12% line:79.33% size:53.77%
WHAT IT HAS DONE IS CREATE A REMOTE SALES TAX COMMISSION THAT

19:30.933 --> 19:34.633 position:23.12% line:79.33% size:53.77%
WILL BE IN CHARGE OF BEING THE CENTRAL COLLECTOR FOR A LOT OF

19:34.767 --> 19:38.000 position:34.31% line:79.33% size:31.39%
THESE REMOTE SALES. LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARE ALREADY

19:38.133 --> 19:40.433 position:45.5% line:79.33% size:9%
MOVING AHEAD TO MAKE THE COLLECTIONS.

19:40.567 --> 19:44.333 position:21.25% line:79.33% size:57.5%
THE REMOTE SALES COLLECTION IS TRYING TO GET ITS DUCKS IN A ROW

19:44.467 --> 19:47.367 position:38.97% line:79.33% size:22.06%
AND START TO DO IT AT THE BEGINNING OF 2019.

19:47.500 --> 19:52.367 position:24.05% line:79.33% size:51.9%
A BIG QUESTION IS IN THE END HOW ARE THOSE TAXES GOING TO BE

19:52.500 --> 19:55.267 position:20.32% line:79.33% size:59.36%
COLLECTED AND WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES ARE THEY GOING TO BE COLLECTED.

19:55.400 --> 19:57.867 position:31.51% line:79.33% size:36.98%
SOMEBODY IS GOING TO SUE. ALL THIS IS GOING TO GO TO

19:58.000 --> 19:59.500 position:21.09% line:84.67% size:57.81%
COURT. I THINK THAT IS WHAT OUR

19:59.633 --> 20:02.467 position:41.77% line:79.33% size:16.47%
ORGANIZATION HAS BEEN SAYING FOR A WHILE.

20:02.600 --> 20:04.600 position:46.43% line:79.33% size:7.14%
WE SEE THIS COLLISION COURSE COMING.

20:04.733 --> 20:10.500 position:24.05% line:79.33% size:51.9%
WE SHOULD ALSO EXPLAIN THAT THERE'S NOT NECESSARILY THIS BIG

20:10.633 --> 20:12.667 position:40.84% line:79.33% size:18.33%
UNCOLLECTED PILE OF TAX REVENUE OUT THERE.

20:12.800 --> 20:17.533 position:24.05% line:79.33% size:51.9%
WHAT YOU HAVE TO REALIZE IS A LOT OF THE BIG ONLINE SALES IN

20:17.667 --> 20:22.400 position:31.51% line:79.33% size:36.98%
THE STATE WE ARE ALREADY COLLECTING SALES TAX ON IT.

20:22.533 --> 20:26.200 position:40.84% line:79.33% size:18.33%
THEY ARE ALREADY IN THE BOOKS SO TO SPEAK.

20:26.333 --> 20:30.067 position:23.12% line:79.33% size:53.77%
NOW YOU HAVE A WHOLE NEW REALM OF RETAILERS, ESPECIALLY THOSE

20:30.200 --> 20:35.867 position:49.23% line:79.33% size:1.55%
WHO ARE THE E-COMMERCE TIME. TYPE

20:36.000 --> 20:39.800 position:23.89% line:84.67% size:52.22%
YOUR ETSY AND EBAY. EXACTLY.

20:39.933 --> 20:43.433 position:32.44% line:79.33% size:35.11%
THERE WILL BE NEW REVENUE. BUT A LOT OF THE BIGGEST

20:43.567 --> 20:46.700 position:26.85% line:79.33% size:46.3%
RETAILERS OUT THERE THAT ARE ALREADY SELLING IN THE STATE

20:46.833 --> 20:51.800 position:30.58% line:79.33% size:38.84%
WE'RE ALREADY COLLECTING. YOU ARE NOT GOING TO SEE AN

20:51.933 --> 20:54.367 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
ENORMOUS LEAP UP OF MONEY. THANK YOU FOR SPEAKING WITH

21:18.933 --> 21:21.100 position:43.63% line:79.33% size:12.73%
REASONS. THEY PREDICT NINE MORE STORMS.

21:21.233 --> 21:24.767 position:28.71% line:79.33% size:42.58%
THERE HAVE BEEN THREE ALREADY, THREE REACHING HURRICANE

LITTLE COMFORT FOR THOSE OF US LIVING IN LOUISIANA LONG BEFORE

21:39.167 --> 21:46.767 position:24.98% line:79.33% size:50.03%
KATRINA BECAME THE BENCHMARK, 162 YEARS AGO THIS LAST MONTH

21:46.900 --> 21:48.700 position:49.23% line:79.33% size:1.55%
BECAME THE LAST ISLAND HURRICANE.

21:48.833 --> 21:52.167 position:34.31% line:79.33% size:31.39%
IT WIPED OUT THE PLACE TO SUMMER ALONG OUR COAST.

21:52.300 --> 22:00.833 position:32.44% line:79.33% size:35.11%
I TALKED WITH STATE CLIMATEOLOGIST BARRY KIME ABOUT

22:00.967 --> 22:06.500 position:40.84% line:79.33% size:18.33%
THAT TRAGIC EVENT. IN THE 1850s, A VISITOR

22:06.633 --> 22:08.700 position:43.63% line:79.33% size:12.73%
DESCRIBED THE STRETCH OF SAND AND SURF.

22:08.833 --> 22:12.367 position:32.44% line:79.33% size:35.11%
HE WROTE, THIS BEACH IS CERTAINLY ONE OF THE FINEST

22:12.500 --> 22:14.800 position:42.7% line:79.33% size:14.6%
PLACES FOR PROMENADING I HAVE EVER SEEN.

22:14.933 --> 22:18.700 position:25.91% line:79.33% size:48.17%
IN THAT ERA, LOUISIANA WAS ONE OF THE WEALTHIEST STATES IN

AMERICA. FIVE MILES FROM THE MAINLAND, ON

RESTAURANT, DINING AND FINERIES WAS THE FOCAL POINT.

22:59.900 --> 23:02.067 position:23.89% line:84.67% size:52.22%
WERE. IT WAS A BEACH RESORT.

23:02.200 --> 23:06.933 position:21.25% line:79.33% size:57.5%
IT WAS A LITTLE OFF THE COAST. IT IS HARD TO GO TO THE BEACH IN

THE MARSH OF LOUISIANA. YOU AREú■ OFF THE MARSH, A FEW

FORECASTING WAS ESSENTIALLY NONEXISTENT THEN.

23:35.400 --> 23:40.167 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
WE HAD BASICALLY THE STORM THAT GINS UP IN THE EXTREME

SOUTHEASTERN GULF OF MEXICO. THE FIRST SHIP REPORTS OF THIS

STORM IS ABOUT 100 OR SO MILES WEST OF KEY WEST.

23:47.733 --> 23:51.067 position:26.85% line:79.33% size:46.3%
MY SUSPICION IS IT PROBABLY MOVED OUT OVER WHAT IS CALLED

23:51.200 --> 23:53.933 position:34.31% line:79.33% size:31.39%
THE LOOP CURRENT. A WARM WATER CURRENT THAT COMES

OUT OF CARIBBEAN AND GOES TO THE SOUTHEASTERN GULF OF MEXICO.

24:03.333 --> 24:07.667 position:41.77% line:79.33% size:16.47%
THE STORM GOT OUT OF ONE OF THOSE EDDIES.

24:14.100 --> 24:19.667 position:29.65% line:79.33% size:40.71%
SOMETHING SIMILAR AND MADE LAND FALL AT THE DERNIERES.

24:34.700 --> 24:38.433 position:27.78% line:79.33% size:44.44%
ROLLED OVER THIS ISLAND. THE HIGHEST POINT ON THE ISLAND

24:38.567 --> 24:42.133 position:38.04% line:79.33% size:23.92%
