re: THC is not king bill passed the LA senate yesterday (Update: Passed Committee)

Understanding that their are political lobbies amongst various groups that or either for or against the use of Hemp and Marijuana and affect legislative voting, I purely speak from a tax perspective. One of the hardest components of marijuana/THC/Hemp laws is how the government/Dept of Revenue or Ta...

Long story short, while Im an opponent of government overreach and over legislation, this could actually help pave the way for recreational marijuana use in Louisiana down the road. ...

While I'm not entirely sure of the Louisiana legislatures intentions, I do know that there is movement across multiple states to curtail the sale of hemp based THC products that were made legal through the farm bill. The movement is primarily happening in states were medical and/or recreational use ...

re: F-150 prices are about to plunge, get ready
Posted by GeauxOn on 4/16/24 at 8:01 pm
I adamantly believe trucks are overpriced, but to expect prices to be the same as 8-9 years ago is a bit disingenuous. You have to at least reasonably expect prices to increase at the rate of normal inflation, not in the least considering the cost of Biden inflation. ...
re: Powell: Fed can maintain higher rates for "as long as needed"
Posted by GeauxOn on 4/16/24 at 7:33 pm
I also truly think the old croons in the FED do not understand the purchasing behaviors of the new generation. Saving money is not a priority for the younger generations as they have pretty well accepted they will be working until they're 70+ with no social security to rely on and they also live in ...

I say all the following as someone who works for one the nations largest wholesalers, if not the largest depending on metric and work intimately with manufacturers. I believe we are in a bit of a vicious cycle where manufacturers are increasing prices because debt is expensive, but there is no scal...

re: Then they came for our Zyn
Posted by GeauxOn on 1/26/24 at 1:05 pm
While I don't disagree that big government likes to enact legislation to ensure optimal tax revenues, it doesn't exactly apply here. Cigarettes and OTP (Other Tobacco Products) are taxed differently. Most nicotine pouch (TDN) users were already users of OTP and in most tax jurisdictions TDN and OTP ...
re: Then they came for our Zyn
Posted by GeauxOn on 1/26/24 at 12:46 pm
For those that aren't familiar with the tobacco industry. Zyn is owned by Swedish Match, also the manufacturers of White Owl and Game little cigars. On! is manufactured by Helix Innovations, which is owned by Altria, who also owns PhilipMorris USA and USSR, so Marlboro and Copenhagen. Velo is manufa...
re: Then they came for our Zyn
Posted by GeauxOn on 1/26/24 at 12:40 pm
The tobacco industry would be investing $0 to Schumer for this stance, quite the opposite. TDN (Tobacco Derived Nicotine) products (aka Zyn, On!, Rogue and Velo) are a fast growing segment for all the major players in an otherwise declining category. Zyn, owned by swedish match, is the dominant bra...

re: LSU should do all they can to fight a bowl game with ND
Posted by GeauxOn on 11/27/23 at 4:39 pm
The matchup in regards to winning doesn't bother me at all. What is annoying is playing a team we've played in multiple bowls in recent years. I really wish there was bowl tie in where we could play a west coast team like Arizona that we have only played 3 times in our history....
re: Are conference championship games going to continue?
Posted by GeauxOn on 11/27/23 at 4:33 pm
As of now they are set to continue, too much money for them not to be played. They will basically be a de facto "playoff" game to determine seeding. The problem that can happen is it is entirely possible you could see the same teams play 3 times in a season. For example next year, the big 10 is goin...
